To photograph truthfully and effectively is to see beneath the surfaces.

Life is your art. An open, aware heart is your camera. A oneness with your world is your film. Your bright eyes and easy smile is your museum.

A photograph is not an accident - is a concept. It exists at, or before, the moment of exposure of the negative.

Photography and photographers have an inevitable development. They progress more or less by steps. Every five or ten years some new point of view is developed and young people are inclined to follow it.

The (photographic) negative is the equivalent of the composers score and the print is the equivalent of the conductors performance.

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.

A photograph is not an accident - it is a concept.
