...photographers who carry 60 pounds of equipment up a hill to photograph a view are not suffering enough, although their whining causes enough suffering among their listeners. No, if they really expect us to respect their search for enlightenment and artistic expression, in [the] future they will drag the equipment up the hill by their genitals and take the view with a tripod leg stuck through their foot.

But there are times when thinking is misplaced, like when taking photographs. You cannot think your way to making photographs; you can photograph your way to clearer thinking.

Photographers have already photographed everything too many times, except cheese.

My point is that meaning is always personal, changeable and subjective. There is no 'correct' interpretation of a photograph.

A few photographers make a killing; the rest can't make a living.

Photography opens your eyes a little wider to the world around you.
