The democratic vision prevails

While I agree with my MAESTRO Efrem Raimondi that photography is not democratic in its mere action and intention, I absolutely believe in the democracy of my vision on the street which aims to include rather than exclude.

If street photography, as I claim, is an experience and not a genre, then we must take for granted the concept of including everything that is part of this experience, without worrying too much about rules and boundaries.

If this displeases the simple man who needs constant guidance, it certainly cheers the courageous man who seeks something more from photography.
