M.I.L.K是“Moments of Intimacy, Laughter and Kinship”的简写,所有提交作品的照片都以记录“友情、亲情、家庭欢乐”为终极目标,最终评选结果,自然要比我们所介绍过的任何一个摄影奖项,更打动人,并给予人相信生命中美好事物存在的力量 ─── 在我们看来,这便是摄影的意义。
Minor White, the great American photographer, once told a story. As a young man he visited the dying Alfred Stieglitz at his Manhattan gallery, An American Place, sometime about 1930. White asked him how to be a photographer. The dying Stieglitz asked him in return, "Have you ever been in love?" White said that he had. Stieglitz told him, "Then you can be a photographer." -Malcolm Venville, "Layers", Sping Publishing
