But if you're talking about fine art work, then I think you have to ask yourself some pretty deep questions about why it is you want to take pictures and what it is you want to say.

I'm not an equipment nut. I tend to use whatever's at hand. I have several cameras, of course, but I'm not emotional about any of them
Leonard Nimoy

I've enjoyed photography, ever since I was a teenager, and I'm still at it. I've had shows in various cities, around the country, and I have a number of pieces in permanent collections in museums that I'm very proud of.

What I'm exploring right now is the subject of my own mortality, It's an area that I'm curious about, and I'm researching it to see if there's a photographic essay in it for me. If images don't start to come, I'll go to something else.

The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.
Leonard Nimoy
Image
Some words having to do with the death of the people in the World Trade Center attack had been added, and when I got to it, I had this overwhelmingly emotional experience. I struggled to get through the words tears were streaming down my cheeks.
Leonard Nimoy
Image
When you let me take I'm grateful. When you let me give I'm blessed.
Leonard Nimoy
Image
That is the exploration that awaits you! Not mapping stars and studying nebula, but charting the unknown possibilities of existence.
Leonard Nimoy
Image
These are beautiful days. Folks ask what I'm doing. I tell them I'm doing family.
Leonard Nimoy
Image
Greetings, I am pleased to see that we are different. May we together become greater than the sum of both of us.

Fascinating is a word I use for the unexpected, in this case I would think interesting would suffice.

Image
I've never understood the female capacity to avoid a direct answer to any question.
Leonard Nimoy
Image
My folks came to U.S. as immigrants, aliens, and became citizens. I was born in Boston, a citizen, went to Hollywood and became an alien.

Image
My dream concept is that I have a camera and I am trying to photograph what is essentially invisible. And every once in a while I get a glimpse of her and I grab that picture.

Computers make excellent and efficient servants, but I have no wish to serve under them.
