The camera is no more an instrument of preservation, the image is.

Imagine a world without photography, one could only imagine.

I took to photography like a duck to water. I never wanted to do anything else. Excitement about the subject is the voltage which pushes me over the mountain of drudgery necessary to produce the final photograph.

What the human eye observes casually and incuriously, the eye of the camera (the lens) notes with relentless fidelity.

I didn't decide to be a photographer; I just happened to fall into it.

The photographer is the contemporary being par excellence; through his eyes the now becomes the past.

Photography is not only drawing with light, though light is the indispensable agent of its being. It is modeling or sculpturing with light, to reproduce the plastic form of natural objects. It is painting with light.
