The game, let's say, of trying to state photographic problems is, for me, absolutely fascinating.

I've goofed, and there's been something interesting, but I haven't made use of it. It just doesn't interest me.

I develop my own film. And I work in spurts. I pile it up.

People are just dumb. They misunderstand.

[Me book is] called Stock Photographs. It was done at the Fort Worth livestock show and rodeo. I was commissioned to shoot there by the Fort Worth Art Museum for a show. I probably shot a total of fourteen days, give or take.

I knew that was coming. That's another stupidity. The people who use the term don't even know the meaning. They use it to refer to photographs they believe are loosely organized, or casually made, whatever you want to call it. Whatever terms you like. The fact is, when they're talking about snapshots they're talking about the family album picture, which is one of the most precisely made photographs.

I have a burning desire to see what things look like photographed by me.
