Why don't you take a picture? It will last longer.

Capturing Moments Before They Disappear

For the humor-deprived, the title might seem borderline inappropriate, but it's actually quite fitting.

Photographers have a duty to document the world as it is. Many iconic pieces of our existence are vanishing, and once they're gone, they're gone forever.

Pay attention to everything and take nothing for granted. Don't tell yourself that you'll take a certain photo someday. Take it today.
