Nothing to do with Bob Dylan

Please allow me to sound pretentious for just a moment. My excuse is that I am stealing this post from another pretentious blog.

Start the pretention:
Now I've never really been partial to Avedon. It may be odd to you because he photographed many of the figures from a time which I admire. So you may ask, why are you then posting a picture by Mr. Richard Avedon? And I will reply to you, because it is a wonderful picture of Bob Dylan and one of those can never be denied.

Here is the original post from elevenmagazine.wordpress.com:

Richard Avedon shooting Bob Dylan. When? I don’t know. Why? Not a clue. Does it matter? No.
