Aside from women, I don't know. My work doesn't function the way Robert Frank's did.

I'm a good craftsman and I can have this particular intention: let's say, I want a photograph that's going to push a certain button in an audience, to make them laugh or love, feel warm or hate or what - I know how to do this.

You've got to deal with how photographs look, what's there, not how they're made.

I don't think time is involved in how the thing is made.

I don't have anything to say in any picture. But you do, from your experience, surmise something. You do give a photograph symbolic content, narrative content... But it's nothing to worry about!

[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.

You see something happening and you bang away at it. Either you get what you saw or you get something else--and whichever is better you print.
