Quote of the day
"Several [photographs] are far from being above reproach; but perhaps the traveller can be granted a little indulgence when his painstaking work is carried out in a land like Egypt. Isolated in a region without resources, he is able to rely only on himself; pressed for time, the slowness of means of communication does not permit him to retrace his steps; a nomad, his laboratory is set up every day in a different place, often in the open air, and under conditions which make it very difficult to obtain good results."
