You don't study photography. You do it.

I like museums in Berlin a lot, especially in the eastern part. They're extraordinarily good.

Somehow Photoshop and the ease with which one can produce an image has degraded the quality of photography in general.

I'm almost violent about that stuff - electronic manipulation of pictures. I think it's an abomination. I reject it all. I mean, it's OK for selling corn flakes or automobiles or for taking pimples out of Elizabeth Taylor's face, but it undermines the thing that photography is about, which is about observation and not about manipulation of images.

A picture should be looked at - not talked about.

I'm an amateur photographer, apart from being a professional one, and I think maybe my amateur pictures are the better ones.

After following the crowd for a while, I'd then go 180 degrees in the exact opposite direction. It always worked for me.
