The primary problem is to learn to be your own toughest critic. You have to pay attention to intelligent work, and to work at the same time. You see. I mean, you’ve got to bounce off better work. It’s matter of working.

At times people in the press were also useful to me.

Let's say that what's out there is a narrative. Often enough, the picture plays with the question of what actually is happening. Almost the way puns function.

You've got a number of things that take place that are peculiar to still photography. One: how a picture looks - what you photograph is responsible for how a photograph looks. In other words, it's responsible for the form.

I don't know how to say easily what I learned. One thing I can say I learned is how amazing photography could be.

I don't go around looking at my pictures.

It's the easiest thing in the world to do that, to make successful photographs. It's a bore.
