Dennis Hopper, Photographer

Was Dennis Hopper a better photographer than an actor?

A Nikon 35mm camera, among other cameras, was used for much of his work. I have been amazed at the images in his book for the 1961-1967 time period.

Just a reminder that those old photographs still have power, the power to catch your eye and draw you in closer. The power to tell a story, and the power to capture moments in time for generations yet to be born to enjoy and learn.

One wonders what our contribution to the world will be with all the millions of photographs being taken every day with the latest and greatest of technology.

It is still the photographer, not the camera, right?:thumbup:
