In my photography, color and composition are inseparable. I see in color.

I believe in the resonance and staying power of quiet photographs. These photographs required a certain seeing, but few special techniques, and no tricks. Something though was hard. It was hard being between photographs and not knowing when or how another image would reveal itself.

I think the best pictures are often on the edges of any situation, I don't find photographing the situation nearly as interesting as photographing the edges.

Photography is a way of introducing people to other people.

What's really important is to simplify. The work of most photographers would be improved immensely if they could do one thing: get rid of the extraneous. If you strive for simplicity, you are more likely to reach the viewer.

You have to care. You can't do good work if you don't care. That's not necessarily a strength, but it gives you strength.

What is right? Simply put, it is any assignment in which the photographer has a significant spiritual stake...spiritually driven work constitutes the core of a photographer's contribution to culture.

All I need is my brains, my eyes and my personality, for better or for worse.

I think the 50mm lens is an extremely good discipline lens it requires you to see in a more refined way, not just tighter.

Words and pictures can work together to communicate more powerfully than either alone.

You've got to push yourself harder. You've got to start looking for pictures nobody else could take. You've got to take the tools you have and probe deeper.
