Bring the viewer to your side, include him in your thought. He is not a bystander. You have the power to increase his perceptions and conceptions.

That frame of mind that you need to make fine pictures of a very wonderful subject, you cannot do it by not being lost yourself.

It is no accident that the photographer becomes a photographer any more than the lion tamer becomes a lion tamer.

Photographers stop photographing a subject too soon before they have exhausted the possibilities.

Pick a theme and work it to exhaustion... the subject must be something you truly love or truly hate.

I realize more and more what it takes to be a really good photographer. You go in over your head, not just up to your neck.

I believe in living with the camera, and not using the camera.
