"Portraits without people : It may sound like a contradiction in terms, but it may not always be necessary for people actually to appear in portraits. A detailed photograph of the interior of a room may portray the personality of the occupants more accurately than any picture of their head and shoulders. After all, we usually gather around us the things we like or are interested in. A photograph of these items could be more ‘you’ than a photograph of your face. ” ― Paul Hill, (‘Chapter Five: The Photographer as Witness’, Approaching Photography, 2nd Edition, 2004, Photographers' Institute Press, ISBN 1 86108 323 8, p79)
