As a photographer taking thousands and thousands of images that must be reduced or edited into cohesion to present to the public or viewer, and nearly always a small number like 20 or 30, I am attempting to figure out why I make the decisions I make. Dilemma works have come about by me deciding not to decide. When staring at two frames trying to pick which one is worth printing, then worth framing, then worth putting on a wall for others to see, I wanted to try and pass along the perpetual dilemma I was feeling along to someone else to figure out.
