You don't take a picture, you make a picture.

I am always surprised when I see several cameras, a gaggle on lenses, filters, meters, et cetera, rattling around in a soft bag with a complement of refuse and dust. Sometimes the professional is the worst offender!

A photograph is usually looked at - seldom looked into.

I have often thought that if photography were difficult in the true sense of the term - meaning that the creation of a simple photograph would entail as much time and effort as the production of a good watercolor or etching - there would be a vast improvement in total output. The sheer ease with which we can produce a superficial image often leads to creative disaster.

Not everybody trusts paintings but people believe photographs.

Sometimes I do get to places just when God's ready to have somebody click the shutter.

It is my intention to present - through the medium of photography - intuitive observations of the natural world which may have meaning to the spectators.
