Inspirations
T.S. Eliot, banker / poet.
Wallace Stevens, insurance company executive / poet.
Walker Evans, bank clerk turned photographer.
Andre Kertesz, bank clerk turned photographer.
Sebastiao Salgado, economist turned photographer.
This blog takes its name from the eight diagrams (trigrams) of the I Ching (Book of Changes), a book of cosmology and philosophy dating back to China’s Shang and Zhou dynasties.
Great set of inspirations.

Thank you Wayne for commenting on Moleskine. I actually just sent them an email with some pics to tell them that I really appreciated the good work they do and then I get an email that they want to feature me. Go figure, but spreading love and kindness without expectation seems to be much appreciated by folks these days.
I think what you do is such an accomplishment Wayne. Its late but I will come back to read some more. I had to tell you Thanks and do it right away.
Kindest,
Michael
