More quotes by Garry Winogrand
When I'm photographing, I don't have that kind of nonsense running around in my head. I'm photographing. It's irrelevant in the end, so it doesn't mean a thing. It's not going to make me do better work or worse work as I can see it now.
Garry Winogrand
I photograph to find out what something will look like photographed.

Garry Winogrand
Let's put it this way - I photograph what interests me all the time. I live with the pictures to see what that thing looks like photographed. I'm saying the same thing I'm not changing it.

Garry Winogrand
It's a lot of work organizing something, whether it's a show or a book, and I don't want to do it every day.
Garry Winogrand
When I look at photographs, I couldn't care less how.
Garry Winogrand
I develop my own film. And I work in spurts. I pile it up.
Garry Winogrand
Just think how minimal somebody's family album is. But you start looking at one of them, and the word everybody will use is charming. Something just happened. It's automatic, just operating a camera intelligently.
Garry Winogrand
I may very well move in. I just don't know. I can't sit here and know what pictures I'm going to take.
Garry Winogrand
No one moment is most important. Any moment can be something.
Garry Winogrand
There are things I photograph because I'm interested in those things.
Garry Winogrand
Los Angeles has interested me for a long time. I was in Texas for five years, for the same reason. I wanted to photograph there.
