What drives and motivates photographers to do the work they do? I think that our unifying motivation is curiosity - an unrelenting, never-ending curiosity - an "itch" to know more about something and to learn about that thing through photographing it. I was prompted to think about how we should cultivate the itch - our curiosity - and not the scratch by this quote from photographer Sabastião Salgado: “If you’re young and have the time, go and study. Study anthropology, sociology, economy, geopolitics. Study so that you’re actually able to understand what you’re photographing. What you can photograph and what you should photograph.” Links for this Episode: The Italy Photography Workshops for 2017 Sicily: Photographing a Sense of Place - May 26 to June 2, 2017 Tuscany: Exploring the Eternal Moment - June 17 to June 24, 2017 Sabãstiao Salgado - View some of his work Steps, Medici Chapel, Florence, 2016 - Photograph by Jeff Curto
