Has it all been done before?

There's 60 billion photos on facebook, yep, 60 billion. That's about 55 billion more than flickr


None of them are mine.

And so each venture
Is a new beginning, a raid on the inarticulate . . .
And what there is to conquer
By strength and submission, has already been discovered
Once or twice, or several times, by men whom one cannot hope
To emulate -- but there is no competition --
There is only the fight to recover what has been lost
And found and lost again and again: and now, under conditions
That seem unpropitious.
But perhaps neither gain nor loss.
For us, there is only the trying.
The rest is not our business


T.S Eliot  

That passage can be found on the last page of Robert Adams beautiful essay: Making art new.


I'm going to keep trying
