My talent lies in the fact that I cannot touch a camera without expressing myself.

Of course a picture can lie, but only if you are not honest with yourself.

If you want to write you should learn the alphabet. You write and write and in the end you hava a beautiful, perfect alphabet. But it isn’t the alphabed that is important. The important thing is what you are writing, what you are expressing. The same thing goes for photography. Photographs can be technically perfect and even beautiful, but they have no expression.

I can do something with almost anything I see. Everything is still interesting to me.

The moment always dictates in my work. What I feel, I do. This is the most important thing for me. Everybody can look, but they don't necessarily see. I never calculate or consider; I see a situation and I know that it's right, even if I have to go back to get the proper lighting.

Technique isn't important. Technique is in the blood. Events and mood are more important than good light and the happening is what is important

I still regard myself as an amateur today and I hope that's what I'll stay until the end of my life. Because I'm forever a beginner who discovers the world again and again.
