My advice is: learn from the best or teach yourself. And do not bother at all if you do not have an exaggerated sense of curiosity.

These are the two basic controls at the photographer's command--positi on and timing--all others are extensions, peripheral ones, compared to them

The most important piece of equipment after the camera is a good pair of shoes.

Learn from the best; the second raters have nothing to offer.

There are many forms of photography. I consider myself simply a recorder of that which I find of interest around me. I personally have no desire to create or stage direct ideas.

Life as it unfolds in front of the camera is full of so much complexity, wonder and surprise that I find it unnecessary to create new realities. There is more pleasure, for me, in things as-they-are.

The destination of the photograph is to reveal what something or somebody looked like, under a particular set of conditions, at a particular moment in time, and to transmit the results to others.
