If you are a writer and you are in Rome you will have a specific connection to it, then perhaps you will go to Sweden and you will have a different connection and it will be a very different experience.

In the end, photography for me is just an excuse to get to know the world.

When I'm taking pictures I even forget that I have a camera. When I shoot I forget about everything. Light comes, death comes, people go in and out in costume - and it's like a play.

What the eye sees is a synthesis of who you are and all you have learned. This is what I would call the language of photography.

A photographer without imagination is not a good photographer.

I think that any photographer is an investigator. Photography is a pretext to know the world, to know life. To know yourself.
