My black-and-white work is more of a celebration and the color work became more of a critique of society.

Taking photos is a form of collecting.

I am kept awake by the list of possibilities for shooting more photos and deciding what I must prioritise next.

Photographs are interpretations of reality; as such, it is entirely subjective. Most photos are taken with an agenda, to sell something or to make a subject look better than it really is. Think of family snapshots - everyone is smiling and happy.

I get up early and open my emails, write cheques and answer the phone; whatever needs to be done.

Magnum photographers were meant to go out as a crusade ... to places like famine and war and ... I went out and went round the corner to the local supermarket because this to me is the front line.

If you photograph for a long time, you get to understand such things as body language. I often do not look at people I photograph, especially afterwards. Also when I want a photo, I become somewhat fearless, and this helps a lot. There will always be someone who objects to being photographed, and when this happens you move on.
