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.

Leonard Nimoy
It's all about trying to make the world and the universe a better place. I'm proud to be connected with it. I think we need that in our lives. We need ethical, heroic people trying to do the right thing to help others and to improve life on this planet and in the universe.
Leonard Nimoy
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

Which is probably the reason why I work exclusively in black and white... to highlight that contrast.
Leonard Nimoy
These are beautiful days. Folks ask what I'm doing. I tell them I'm doing family.

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.
Leonard Nimoy
I've been working with photography for many years.
Leonard Nimoy
That is the exploration that awaits you! Not mapping stars and studying nebula, but charting the unknown possibilities of existence.
Leonard Nimoy

Leonard Nimoy
Art functioning as propaganda is not art.
Leonard Nimoy
It's nice to get off the couch, throw the clothes on, add a little make-up and go back to work, every once in a while.
Leonard Nimoy
I have a Master's Degree in photography as a fine art, and I would call my work primarily conceptual. I don't carry cameras with me wherever I go. I get an idea of a subject matter I want to deal with and I pull out my cameras.
