I know the importance of highly trained awareness of the “moment” and the immediate and intuitive response of the photographer. It should be obvious to all that photographers whose images possess character and quality have attained them only by continued practice and total dedication to the medium.

There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer.

Bad weather makes for good photography.

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

A true photograph need not be explained, nor can it be contained in words.

The negative is the score, and the print the performance.

...one sees differently with color photography than black-and-white... in short, visualization must be modified by the specific nature of the equipment and materials being used.
