I look at a photograph. What's going on? What's happening, photographically? If it's interesting, I try to understand why.

I have no idea what's going to happen. Who knows - if they can't afford to buy a boat, maybe they buy a print. Who knows what happens with their buck?

Los Angeles has interested me for a long time. I was in Texas for five years, for the same reason. I wanted to photograph there.

It's got to do with the contention between content and form. Invariably that's what's responsible for its energies, its tensions, its being interesting or not.

I photograph to find out what something will look like photographed.

I don't care how they think of it. Some of these people are acquiring some very good pictures by a lot of different photographers.

Every photograph is a battle of form versus content.
