I always take photographs when I attend a funeral. Most people there know who I am and expect me to be there with my camera.

Tourism is the biggest industry in the world.

From the moment the tourist enters the site, everyone has to be photographed in front of every feature of note.... The photographic record of the visit has almost destroyed the very notion of actually looking.

I do read many of the photography magazines from the UK and abroad.
