'nuff said.

This entry where I pay tribute to Mr Knight, the best photographer I've ever met. He looks like a very readable Homo Sapiens, but there are many things I haven't discover about him. So, I sent him a questionnaire and ask him to answer it. Now, I know him better than I used to.
Here it goes;

When were you happiest?
Umm… I’d have to say it’s often. I am happiest when I am traveling.
Particularly, if it’s a new place that I’ve never been to before.

What is your greatest fear?
Failure.

What is your earliest memory?
I have memories of playing with my siblings, when I was about 3 or 4 years old.
I remember we had a basement apartment in Edmonton, Canada.

Which living person do you most admire, and why?
Hard to say, but I admire many photographers.
If it were a non-living person, that’d be my Father.

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?
Laziness. Some days, I can think back and wonder what I did all day.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?
Disregard for time. I hate when others are late.
If you say 1 pm, be there at 1 pm, not 1:20 or 1:45.

What was your most embarrassing moment?
Honestly, I can’t really think of any.
I don’t embarrass easily.

Aside from a property, what's the most expensive thing you've bought?
Cars, mostly. I’ve had a few.

What is your most treasured possession?
My camera, and the photos I’ve created with it.

Where would you like to live?
Tough call. SE Asia or China.

If you could bring something extinct back to life, what would you choose?
No idea. An extinct dog?

What would your super power be?
Sight. Permanent, strong, and far-reaching.

What makes you unhappy?
When people lie to me, and it affects decisions I’ve made, because I assume they told me the truth.

What is your most unappealing habit?
Gluttony. I get fat easily, because I eat poorly.

What is your favourite book?
I don’t read too often.
Blink by Malcolm Gladwell changed my life, though.

What would be your fancy dress costume of choice?
Something from medieval times, like a royal costume.

What is your guiltiest pleasure?
Alcohol, I guess.

To whom would you most like to say sorry, and why?
My ex-wife, for wasting her time by marrying her.

What or who is the greatest love of your life?
Ask me before I die. Maybe it is still to come.

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?
“Gosh”, “mmm…pork”, “venti Americano”, “you’re over 18, right?”

What has been your biggest disappointment?
Not being well known for my work.

If you could edit your past, what would you change?
I would go to University and study Business and Photography

When did you last cry?
Can’t recall, it’s been a while.

How often do you have sex?
Umm….not much. A few times per week, I guess.

What is the closest you've come to death?
I can’t think of anything. I’ve led a pretty lucky + safe life.

Tell us a secret.
I was born a poor black child.

If you wanna ask more questions, please feel free to.
I'll be happy to forward your questions to Mr Knight.

xoxo
