It must be confessed that it takes considerable skill to produce the best kind of lies. It is in the hands of first-class photographers only - and perhaps the indifferent ones - that photography can lie.

More quotes by Henry Peach Robinson
After some time passed in studying - and even imitating - the works of others, I would recommend the student to endeavour to be original, and to remember that originality should not be undiscovered plagiarism.
Henry Peach Robinson
No departure from the truth of nature shall be discovered by the closest scrutiny.
Henry Peach Robinson
It is only by loving nature, and going to her for everything, that good work can be done but then we must look to her for the materials for pictures, not for pictures themselves. It is nature filtered through the mind and fingers of the artist that produces art, and the quality of the pictures depends on the fineness of that filter.
