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

Knowing what I know now, any photographer worth his salt could make some beautiful things with pinhole cameras.

Yosemite Valley, to me, is always a sunrise, a glitter of green and golden wonder in a vast edifice of stone and space.

We either have wild places or we don't. We admit the spiritual-emotional validity of wild, beautiful places or we don't. We have a philosophy of simplicity of experience in these wild places or we don't. We admit an almost religious devotion to the clean exposition of the wild, natural earth or we don't.

I knew my destiny when I first experienced Yosemite.

I eagerly await new concepts and processes. I believe that the electronic image will be the next major advance. Such systems will have their own inherent and inescapable structural characteristics, and the artist and functional practitioner will again strive to comprehend and control them.

I don't know anybody who needs a critic to find out what art is.
