Beware of color theories. Theories in color photography are dangerous. The plain fact that there are so many of them proves my point.

Beware of direct inspiration. It leads too quickly to repetitions of what inspired you.

There are two kinds of photographers: those who compose pictures and those who take them. The former work in studios. For the latter, the studio is the world... For them, the ordinary doesn't exist: every thing in life is a source of nourishment.

There is no formula. There are only confirmations to formulas which one has already discovered oneself.

You don’t take pictures, the good ones happen to you.

Bored with obvious reality, I find my fascination in transforming it into a subjective point of view. Without touching my subject I want to come to the moment when, through pure concentration of seeing, the composed picture becomes more made than taken. Without a descriptive caption to justify its existence, it will speak for itself - less descriptive, more creative; less informative, more suggestive - less prose, more poetry.

Refine your senses through the great masters of music, painting, and poetry.
