If all your life means to you is water running over rocks, then photograph it, but I want to create something that would not have existed without me.

Let the subject generate its own photographs. Become a camera.

Reaching a 'creative' state of mind thru positive action is considered preferable to waiting for 'inspiration'.

I have often photographed when I am not in tune with nature but the photographs look as if I had been. So I conclude that something in nature says, 'Come and take my photograph.' So I do, regardless of how I feel.

Photography is a language more universal than words.

Photographers who come up with power never get accused of imitating anyone else even though they photograph the same broom, same street, same portraits.

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