The picture is like a prayer, an offering, and hopefully an opening through which to seek what we don't know, or already know and should take seriously.

We tremble at the feelings we experience as our sense of wholeness is reorganized by what we see.

Of course, this is one of the really important things about art, that you can make more than you can understand at the moment the thing is being made. But the gap between what we recognize inside ourselves - our feelings- and our ability to trust ourselves and to trust exposing ourselves to those ideas, can be great.

This is the gift of the landscape photograph, that the heart finds a place to stand.

I want my photographs to say: "Look-there's this thing you haven't seen that you should see."

All important pictures embody something that we do not yet understand.
