In 1971, my wife Jane was hired to translate the text of a book entitled "Peru in living color", by John W. Majewksi, a Canadian photographer. During the performance of the work, we had a chance to meet the author. Later, we admired the book, which contained more than 120 excellent photographs. Pleasantly surprised at the quality, I asked the author how he managed to take such good pictures. His answer was almost self-deprecating: "You should have seen the three-thousand pictures that I did not publish." I then confirmed that a sure path to quality is through quantity. I have since followed this time-tested dictum in my photographic endeavors.
