The lie

I love it when I hear people say they hate liars. I hear it so much and in so many contexts but how we can hate liars and the lie when everything we deal in is fiction and false. As photographers we should be aware of how we can use the lie to our artistic advantage. Many of us have used lies for our own advantage in some way or another (although many will never openly admit it, especially those who condem 'liars'). The media, everyday life and our thoughts are saturated with lies and other peoples truths. I say don't condem the liar, I say thank them for going through the effort of creation. I say celebrate the liar and realise the importance of the lie.
