Every Picture Tells a Story. This book began as a simple photo book with an experimental side and the idea that every picture tells a story, or at least should. The experimental side entailed sending each of the writers included in this book a series of photographs, with the intent that they might write a short piece inspired in some way by each of the photos they were assigned. Every one of the writers included here gladly rose to the opportunity and far exceeded all expectations; every photograph was returned, each picture telling its story. The photographs included in this book were taken between 2007 and 2009 using a Nikon D40 with an 18-55mm Nikkor f/3.5-5.6G or a 50mm f/1.8D lens. A few photographs were taken with a basic point and shoot camera (the Kodak V530).
