I looked around at what my colleagues were doing, and asked myself, 'What relationship has it with what's going on?' I found there was a great distortion of contemporary life. Photographers were interested only in certain things. A visually interesting place, people who were either very rich or very poor, and nostalgia.

Filming is always a challenge because I'm not used to it. But I approach it head-on. I'm not technically brilliant, but it's the spirit that counts.

Most of the photographs people take with their cameraphones are of little value in terms of documentary.

I am away so much, so I rarely see live TV, but I use iPlayer to catch programmes.

Tourism is the biggest industry in the world.

I never think of photographs as being individual. Always as a group.

I have been photographing people dancing for 20 or 30 years now, and I think I will eventually do a book of dancing photos.
