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

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

The ‘machine-gun’ approach to photography – by which many negatives are made with the hope that one will be good – is fatal to serious results.

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.

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

The great rocks of Yosemite, expressing qualities of timeless yet intimate grandeur, are the most compelling formations of their kind. We should not casually pass them by, for they are the very heart of the earth speaking to us.

Art is both the taking and giving of beauty, the turning out to the light of the inner folds of the awareness of the spirit.
