# 9 Stormy weather

I watched the recent storms from a Co Devon (west england) window still thinking about the projects ahead.

The weather/energy/environment topic needs to be addressed if only lightly in some shape or form....even Salgado feels the same....if only to have it in the flow of final portfolio and not ignore such an important issue......

I raised the question during the Bresson lecture on whether magnum chose correctly not to cover the 1930's german story.....

I now ask myself if there is room for me to be political or ethical in doing what I feel is my privilege to record what interests me as a photographer without considering the views of Sontag or others...........
