I came upon a volume of Walker Evans photographs titled "Simple Secrets". It is the catalog of an exhibit of Walker Evans photographs from the Collection of Marian and Benjamin A. Hill shown at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, Georgia in 1998. Ellen Fleurov, Curator of Photography. The pictures are small and interesting and include some of his famous "Hidden Camera, Subway portraits". What I found most interesting was the Evan's quote that closed the volume.
It's as though
there's a wonderful secret
in a certain place
and I can capture it.
Only I can do it
at this moment,
only this moment
and only me.
Walker Evans
