ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE
What the Photograph reproduces to infinity has occurred only once: the Photograph mechanically repeats what could never be repeated existentially.
So shoot, shoot away. Events never occur twice. You may never look the same as that one self portrait, nor eat a meal like that one in your photo album. But at the very least you documented it.
Be warned though, for exactitude is as dangerous as severe vagueness. And proof is often unwanted when your anonymity is in short supply.
