I can’t describe reality; at the most, I can try to capture things that seem to be valid, the way I see them.

You have to focus on what you are doing, not just as a photographer, but as a human being.

Shoot from the gut, edit with the brain

For me, the camera is like an entrance to the private lives of other people. And if you are curious like me, it is a fantastic tool.

I don't care so much about form. Perhaps I did in the beginning, a long time ago. But now I just want to be as straight and simple and as true as possible.

In black and white there are more colors than color photography, because you are not blocked by any colors so you can use your experiences, your knowledge, and your fantasy, to put colors into black and white.
