Photography to the amateur is recreation, to the professional it is work, and hard work too, no matter how pleasurable it my be.

The camera sees more than the eye, so why not make use of it?

......so called “composition” becomes a personal thing, to be developed along with technique, as a personal way of seeing.

The photograph isolates and perpetuates a moment of time: an important and revealing moment, or an unimportant and meaningless one, depending upon the photographer's understanding of his subject and mastery of his process.

When a photographer masters the tools and processes of the art, then the quality of the work is only limited by his creative vision.

My own eyes are no more than scouts on a preliminary search, or the camera's eye may entirely change my idea.

I would say to any artist: Don't be repressed in your work, dare to experiment, consider any urge, if in a new direction all the better.
