I only know how to approach a place by walking. For what does a street photographer do but walk and watch and wait and talk, and then watch and wait some more, trying to remain confident that the unexpected, the unknown, or the secret heat of the known awaits just around the corner.

... the possibility of one particular photographer's pictures lying around the corner is never realized until the photographer is there. It's one of the enigmas of photography.

The viewer is yet another eye that is part of the compact that makes a photograph what it is.

Ultimately, the reward is the process - the process of photographing and discovering and trying to understand why and what am I photographing.

I have always felt that a lot of the most interesting work, not just mine but other people's, falls into [the] nether area, somewhere between the worlds of documentary and photojournalism (two very vague words) and the world of art. I think a lot of street photography falls into this nether area.

I'm always playing along that line: adding something more, yet keeping it sort of chaos.
