Taking photos is a form of collecting.

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.

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

Tourism is the biggest industry in the world.

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

For those aspiring to make a living from travel photography, it's a sad fact that the boring shots are the shots that are going to make you money.

To ask people's permission to take their pictures? Sometimes it feels right to ask, but I will not ask, unless it is essential to do so. If you asked all the time, you would miss everything. With the exception of portraits, it is generally bad news if people are looking at the camera.
