I don't really have a favorite camera. I use a Leica and Canon a lot. It depends, especially professionally, on the requirements. But my carry-around camera is a Leica.

You must have a visual sense if you want to be a photographer. It is a very subtle thing, this visual business.

Be sure to take the lens cap off before photographing.

Working myself into a position of total versatility, so that I can do anything I want to do at the time I want to do it. Whether I do it or not is another question.

The main thing is to study pictures and stop listening to the pontifictaions of photographers. Photographers aren't oracles of wisdom. If they're good photographers, then take a good look at their pictures - what else do you need?

A visual sense is something you either have or you don't.

When I get up in the morning I brush my teeth and go about my business, and if I am going anywhere interesting I take my camera along.
