Pain is not a conduit to art or joy

If you are out there shooting, things will happen for you. If you're not out there, you'll only hear about it.

The pictures are everywhere. If you're open, they will find you.

Sometimes without shooting a picture germinates in your head. Other times, you keep taking pictures of the same thing and watch the images mature and grow.

It's important to realize that the images are everywhere, not just where you want or expect them to be.

Always wait for the trigger. The trigger is the final part of the puzzle, the reason you want to shoot.

Be aware of every square millimeter of your frame.
