Pull Up a Chair.

Imagine I emptied a box of photographs onto the table between us.

Before I said a single word, you would begin studying them.

Faces.
Places.
Buildings.
Weather.
Moments.

Then I would begin talking.

Not to describe the photographs.

But to tell you everything the camera could never capture.

That is what The Benny Doro Collection is.
