Why do I take photographs?

In the chaotic, modern life most of us live, photographs capture what we miss. Photographs give importance to fleeting moments of emotion, beauty, irony, or humor. Calling attention to the small details we generally pass by on the way to work or class, photographs allow us to take a step back, remember old places and faces or discover new ones.
Photographs allow for commentary on life. Not always how to live, but always why we live.
