People in motion are wonderful to photograph. It means catching the right moment... when one thing changes into something else.
Andre Kertesz
Image
I don't think it is even possible to define what a good photograph is, so it is difficult to instruct anybody how to make one. Beauty and aesthetics are subjective, and very much in the mind of the beholder.
Michael Kenna
Image
I often had to pass over photographs because in a mass of animals invariably one would be wandering in the wrong direction, thereby disrupting the pattern I was trying to achieve. Today the ability to digitally alter this disruption is at hand.
Art Wolfe
Image
I think of many of my photographs as being obviously symbolic but not symbolically obvious. There isn't any specific correlation between the symbols in this image and any content that I have in mind.
Jerry Uelsmann
Image
The photograph may be presented as finely and artistically as you will but to merit serious consideration, must be directly connected with the world we live in.
Berenice Abbott
Image
You just can't win. Men have very recent land mines in their heads. Women have recorded conversations and photographs in their heads from 15 years ago.
Denis Leary
Image
When I paint from a photograph, conscious thinking is eliminated. I don't know what I am doing. My work is far closer to the Informel than to any kind of 'realism'. The photograph has an abstraction of its own, which is not easy to see through.
Gerhard Richter
Image
The photographer begins to feel big and bloated and so big he can't walk through one of these doors because he gets a good byline he gets notices all over the world and so forth but they're really - the important people are the people he photographs.
Gordon Parks
Image
Although there is a sense in which the camera does indeed capture reality, not just interpret it, photographs are as much an interpretation of the world as paintings and drawings are
Susan Sontag
Image
A theory is no more like a fact than a photograph is like a person.
E. W. Howe
Image
Paintings invariably sum up photographs usually do not. Photographic images are pieces of evidence in an ongoing biography or history. And one photograph, unlike one painting, implies that there will be others.
Susan Sontag
Image
I have no interest in being famous. I just want to make famous photographs.
David LaChapelle
Image
A very faithful drawing may actually tell us more about the model but despite the promptings of our critical intelligence it will never have the irrational power of the photograph to bear away our faith.
Andre Bazin
Image
There is a great difference between shooting a photograph and making a photograph.
Robert Heinecken
Image
The heavy odds against finding the desired... work of art in the mess and flux of life, as opposed to the serene orderliness of imagined reality, give a special tense dazzle and an atmosphere of tour de force to any photographs that succeed in the search.
Janet Malcolm
Image
When we define the Photograph as a motionless image, this does not mean only that the figures it represents do not move it means that they do not (i)emerge(i), do not (i)leave(i): they are anesthetized and fastened down, like butterflies.
Roland Barthes
Image
Every photograph is a fake from start to finish.
Edward Steichen
Image
Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving.
Aaron Siskind
Image
I always felt that when I was photographing, I had a psychic need to see this, to photograph this. And I think if somebody else had been doing this work, and if I could have seen these pictures anywhere at all, then there would have been no need to make them.
Larry Clark
Image
If it's a likeness, alone, it's not a success. If, through my portraits, you can come to know the subjects more meaningfully, if it synthesizes your feelings toward someone whose work has imprinted itself on your mind--if you see a photograph and say, 'Yes, this is the person,' with a little new insight--that is a beautiful experience.
Yousuf Karsh
Image
My big hobby is photography. I collect stereo photographs from the 19th century.
Brian May
Image
You can't photograph if you're not in love.
W. Eugene Smith
Image
In practice a photographer does not concern himself with philosophical issues while working he makes photographs, working with subject matter that he thinks will make the pictures.
John Szarkowski
Image
But empirically I've come to understand that my photographs really don't do any harm.
