If we limit our vision to the real world, we will forever be fighting on the minus side of things, working only too make our photographs equal to what we see out there, but no better.
Galen Rowell
Image
Making these photographs has often seemed to me like a kind of dance. Often I have danced badly and the world has fallen apart at my feet. But sometimes the dance has gone well and my subject and I have moved together as if with shared purpose.

Siobhan said that when you are writing a book you have to include some descriptions of things. I said that I could take photographs and put them in the book. But she said the idea of a book was to describe things using words so that people could read them and make a picture in their own head.

The majority of the people I've taken photographs of, I've had conversations with. What are your goals and aspirations? What are you about? It's not just about me capturing the image I want to know what you are about.
Jamel Shabazz
Image
I don't use photographs because photographs don't give me the kind of information I need.
Alex Colville

If you make an honest picture of war, it will be an antiwar photograph.
James Nachtwey

The act of making a photograph is less a question of what is being looked at than how.
Margaret Atwood

I tend to always carry a camera with me. I live next to a fire station, and I've got lots of photos of the hook and ladder coming out of the house. And I like food, so I tend to photograph wonderfully presented food all the time. To me those are very pleasant memories.
Gordon Bell

Dialectical thought is related to vulgar thinking in the same way that a motion picture is related to a still photograph. The motion picture does not outlaw the still photograph but combines a series of them according to the laws of motion.
Leon Trotsky

A photograph is worth a thousand words, provided it is accompanied by only ten words.
Edward Steichen
Image
I always thought of photography as a naughty thing to do - that was one of my favorite things about it, and when I first did it, I felt very perverse.
Diane Arbus

We'd make love. Afterwards he would take photographs of me. (On modeling for Alfred Stieglitz)
Georgia O'Keeffe

My mother said that when I was young I was constantly saying, Look at this - Look at that. I think that taking pictures must be my way of asking people to Look at this - Look at that. If my photographs make the viewer feel what I did when I first took them - Isn't this funny... terrible... moving... beautiful? - then I've accomplished my purpose.

Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.
Aaron Siskind
Image
What I did for my last act as a painter, if you call me a painter, was to photograph the weave of the canvas, and enlarge it and enlarge it until it became like a landscape.
Agnes Denes
Image
Real people move, they bear with them the element of time. It is this fourth dimension of people that I try to capture in a photograph.
Richard Avedon
Image
I began to realize that photographs, these still images, have a tremendous power to move your soul. They can change your life by what you choose to get out of them, and I started to collect photographs.
Graham Nash
Image
I have a terror of things being nice and knowing what to expect. Making a photograph is a license to have experiences that I would not otherwise have.
Katy Grannan
Image
Photography is one big scrapbook of your life.
Lisa Jones

If you take a good look at the book [ Stock Photographs], it's largely a portrait gallery of faces - faces that I found dramatic. And some of those turned out to be reasonably dramatic photographs. But that's all it is, I think.
Garry Winogrand
Image
Now, to consult the rules of composition before making a picture is a little like consulting the law of gravity before going for a walk.
Edward Weston
Image
When we concentrate on photography, we make it possible to see the walls of photographs in black homes as a critical intervention, a disruption of white control over black images.
Bell Hooks
Image
Taking pictures is savoring life intensely, every hundredth of a second.
Marc Riboud
Image
A great photograph needs no explanation it functions by suggestion. There is no need to be explicit.
