“That's the thing about photographs. If you really look at them hard enough and long enough, your imagnation or your memory starts to animate them. You hear voices, traffic, dogs barking, a door slam. The world of that moment was moving. Other things were going on outside the frame of each individual picture. An instant earlier or later, and you'd be looking at a different picture. Things were happening when the photographer froze these moments. They're a part of something, right? A life, an experience, a place in time. If a song is like a little stretch of a river, a photograph is more like a boat tied off at a dock, but your imagination and your memory can untie the boat and put it back in the river, make it move. You can take it down the river or back up the river.”
