Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.
Surefire things are deadening to the human spirit.
I believe in living with the camera, and not using the camera.
I many times encountered courage, real courage. Undeniable courage. I've heard it said that that was the highest quality of the human animal. I encountered that many times, in unexpected places. And I have learned to recognize it when I see it.
To me, beauty appears when one feels deeply, and art is an act of total attention.
A documentary photograph is not a factual photograph.
