Choosing sepia is all to do with trying to make the image look romantic and idealistic. It's sort of a soft version of propaganda.

I am a big fan of Jim Jarmusch and I do love big screen documentaries.

The thing about tourism is that the reality of a place is quite different from the mythology of it.

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

Part of the role of photography is to exaggerate, and that is an aspect that I have to puncture. I do that by showing the world as I really find it.

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