Themes recur again and again in my work.

What do you hang on the walls of your mind?

The instrument is not the camera but the photographer.

Lesson number one: Pay attention to the intrusion of the camera.

I look for a sense of reality with everything I did. I didn't work in a studio, I didn't light anything. I found a way of working which pleased me because I didn't have to frighten people with heavy equipment. It was that little black box and me and £5 worth of film in my pocket or maybe it was only £2 in those days.

I think if I ever get satisfied, I’ll have to stop. It’s the frustration that drives you.

I came to photography by accident.
