My emotions, instincts, and interests are all with nature.

The more you photograph, the more you realize what can and what can't be photographed. You just have to keep doing it.

Sometimes you can tell a large story with a tiny subject.

Photography is a strong tool, a propaganda device, and a weapon for the defense of the environment...and therefore for the fostering of a healthy human race and even very likely for its survival.

Much is missed if we have eyes only for the bright colors. Nature should be viewed without distinction... She makes no choice herself; everything that happens has equal significance. Nothing can be dispensed with. This is a common mistake that many people make: They think that half of nature can be destroyed - the uncomfortable half - while still retaining the acceptable and the pleasing side.

You learn to see by practice. It's Just like playing tennis, you get better the more you play. The more you look around at things, the more you see. The more you photograph, the more you realize what can be photographed and what can't be photographed. You just have to keep doing it.

Photographs are believed more than words; thus they can be used persuasively to show people who have never taken the trouble to look what is there.
