“What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce.”
– Karl Lagerfeld (Wilson, 2007)

I like these quotes because they explain well what a photograph is and how it makes one feel. It is impossible to take the exact same photo again or be at the exact same moment again but a photograph helps one to remember the experience and the feeling one once had.
