Black and white photography is truly quite a 'departure from reality', and the transition from one aspect of visual magic to another was not as complete as many imagine.

A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed.

There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs.

In wisdom gathered over time I have found that every experience is a form of exploration.

The skies and land are so enormous, and the detail so precise and exquisite that wherever you are you are isolated in a glowing world between the macro and the micro.

I’m interested in something which is built up from within, rather than just extracted from without.

The technique of 35mm photography appears simple. One is beguiled by the quick viewing and operation, and by the very questionable inclination to make many pictures with the hope that some will be good.
