At first glance a photograph can inform us. At second glance it can reach us.

I'm always mentally photographing everything as practice.

There's no particular class of photograph that I think is any better than any other class. I'm always and forever looking for the image that has spirit! I don't give a damn how it got made.

One should not only photograph things for what they are but for what else they are.

The development of a love of medium and a responsibility for one's own pictures is an overall goal.

No matter how slow the film, Spirit always stands still long enough for the photographer It has chosen.

Watching the way the current moves a blade of grass - sometimes I've seen that happen and it has just turned me inside out.
