The Anonymous Man

In the midst of our now highly modernized world, we have become increasingly anonymous within the societies we live in - not only with what we build, and where we work but also in how we communicate.

“ ... it doesn’t matter much that she made this one up, because it’s an interesting one that challenges and entertains. ” 

“ I believe that photography is the absolute chameleon of all time. It is not dependent on the moment we press the shutter nor does it depend on knowing when we should press the shutter.
