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.

If you are intent on drawing or painting on your prints, you must first learn to draw and paint at least as well as you photograph.

A photograph is a picture and no more true or false than any other depiction; why is that so hard to comprehend?

...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.

Only in art can you make something that no one wants and still be considered successful.
