A Moment in Photographic History:
A USAnian photographer who shot exquisite portraits of Native North Americans, Adam Vroman was born April 15, 1856. He also opened and operated a book and photographic supply store in Pasadena, California. That store is still running.
A Photographic Quote of Note:

It is not just a pretty picture, not an exercise in contortionist techniques and sheer print quality. It is or should be a significant document, a penetrating statement, which can be described in a very simple term – selectivity.
