I'm really very concerned with helping to create an attitude of freedom and daring toward the craft of photography.

Let us not be afraid to allow for post-visualization. By post-visualization I refer to the willingness on the part of the photographer to revisualize the final image at any point in the entire photographic process.

The camera is a fluid way of encountering that other reality

The contemporary artist...is not bound to a fully conceived, previsioned end. His mind is kept alert to in-process discovery and a working rapport is established between the artist and his creation. While it may be true, as Nathan Lyons stated, 'The eye and the camera see more than the mind knows,' is it not also conceivable that the mind knows more than the eye and the camera can see?

It is the illusion of knowledge, not ignorance, that keeps one from growing.

It's equally hard and labor intensive to create an image on the computer as it is in a darkroom. Believe me.

My visual quest is driven by a desire to create a universe capable of supporting feelings and ideas.
