I agree, intellectualism in photography is overrated. I just wish it could be replaced by common sense.

If it is not an interesting picture when in focus, it is not going to be a better picture out of focus.

The best way for photographers to become rich and famous is to go into another field.

Asked for your opinion on the prints, you have two choices: truth or tact. I ask for the bathroom.

I'd like my coffin to be a camera obscura so I can see what's going on outside.

Photography is inextricably linked with life; the photographer is not invisibly behind the camera but projecting a life-attitude through the lens to create an interference pattern with the image. Who he is, what he believes, not only becomes important to know intellectually, but also becomes revealed emotionally and visibly through a body of work.

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