Yes, that is *supposedly* true. Charis has been quoted as saying that
in at least one place, and he may have even said it in the Daybooks
(my memory is not what it once was, too!). It obviously raises many
issues: what else might he have seen & photographed? having seen and
photographed other things, would he have stopped at charis' choices?
Whose images are they, then? Etc., etc.
