When finding the right angle for a shot...'Move your ass.'

A photographer's art is more in his perceptions than his execution. In a painter, I think the perception is only the first step, and then you have a kind of hard road of execution.

There is no bad light. There is spectacular light and difficult light. It's up to you to use the light you have.

You always end up with too many pictures to edit and too few that you feel 'got it'.

You have to have a lot of 'overage' so that your failures aren't the only thing you come home with. You've got to have a lot of things that were magnificent failures, but you want some magnificent successes.

I take pictures, and they are there for the taking. I'll tell you a quote that I have always thought about. Arthur Miller said, I try to create the poem from the evidence.

The best camera is the one you have with you.
