Coming tight was boring to me, just the face... it didn't have enough information.

When I was younger, I did things with a camera I would not do by myself. I remember going down to the docks in San Francisco and asking a fisherman if he would take me out on his boat. I would never do that without a camera.

There are still so many places on our planet that remain unexplored. I'd love to one day peel back the mystery and understand them.

A photograph is just a little, teeny-weeny, small piece of life. I feel like I see so much more than what I can actually get.

You have trust in what you think. If you splinter yourself and try to please everyone, you can’t. It’s important to stay the course. I don’t think I would have lasted this long if I’d listened to anyone. You have to listen somewhat and then put that to the side and know that what you do matters.

I'm pretty used to people not liking having their picture taken. I mean, if you do like to have your picture taken, I worry about you.

I feel very proud of the work from the '80s because it is very bright and colorful.
