Aboriginal Australia is a tough place to work, rough and tough.

It matters little how much equipment we use; it matters much that we be masters of all we do use.

[ My time and our common culture] it's what I'm photographing, and I'm very involved with that.

Even though I teach with 35mm, my method takes people by surprise, because it isn't fast, and it isn't about hardware or software, or even great results. It's about great process.

Above all, it's hard learning to live with vivid mental images of scenes I cared for and failed to photograph. It is the edgy existence within me of these unmade images that is the only assurance that the best photographs are yet to be made.

I would like to go to Antarctica. That's about all.

The longer we lived with it the more we wanted something less about process and more about life.
