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

Once destroyed, nature's beauty cannot be repurchased at any price

The single most important component of a camera is the twelve inches behind it!

I hope that my work will encourage self expression in others and stimulate the search for beauty and creative excitement in the great world around us.

I never know in advance what I will photograph,...I Go Out into the World and Hope I Will come across something that Imperatively interests me. I Am Addicted to the Found object. I have No doubt that I Will Continue to make Photographs till my last Breath.

I believe the world is incomprehensibly beautiful - an endless prospect of magic and wonder.

"Simply look with perceptive eyes at the world about you, and trust to your own reactions and convictions. Ask yourself: "Does this subject move me to feel, think and dream? Can I visualize a print - my own personal statement of what I feel and want to convey - from the subject before me?""
