The first time, I usually skim off the outer layer and end up with photographs that are fairly obvious. The second time, I have to look a little deeper. The images get more interesting. The third time it is even more challenging and on each subsequent occasion, the images should get stronger, but it takes more effort to get them.
Michael Kenna
Image
I hope that my work will encourage self expression in others and stimulate the search for beauty and creative excitement in the great world around us.
Ansel Adams

Twitter makes you a comedian in the same way that digital cameras make you a photographer
Ken Jennings
Image
I never have taken a picture I've intended. They're always better or worse.
Diane Arbus
Image
I want to make photographs whose very ambiguity provokes thought, rather than cuts it off prematurely. I want to make pictures that work on a more mysterious level, that approach the truth by a more circuitous route.
John Pfahl

All dancers are, by and large, a photographer's dream. They communicate with their bodies and they are trained to be completely responsive to a collaborative situation.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
The photographer who attempts to fit happily into the world by using the traditional perspective of the camera will end up falling into the hole of the idea he has dug for himself.
Daido Moriyama
Image
Photographers and artists contribute a lot to the world and have a right to exist in relative security and comfort.
Ansel Adams
Image
Choice and chance structure art and nature.
Frederick Sommer
Image
Somewhere in our search for reality we have passed something by, something important that we no longer find amid the bits and pieces of disassembled matter-something vital that we cannot build out of these parts. There is surely something else, some piece of divinity in us, something that was before the elements, and that owes no homage to the sun.
Walker Evans
Image
Any good photograph is a successful synthesis of technique and art.
Andreas Feininger
Image
I never thought of being a performer, never thought of being a singer, never thought of being a photographer. It's just the trajectory of my work. I go to the medium that serves the vision.
Patti Smith
Image
Regardless of how you feel inside, always try to look like a winner.
Arthur Ashe
Image
There are many schools of painting. Why should there not be many schools of photographic art? There is hardly a right and a wrong in these matters, but there is truth, and that should form the basis of all works of art.
Alfred Stieglitz
Image
I'm in between an installation artist, video artist and photographer. And when you work with nude bodies, you're immediately called a pornographer or a fashion photographer.
Spencer Tunick
Image
I need there to be documentary photographers, because my work is meta-documentary it is a commentary about the documentary use of photography.
Joan Fontcuberta
Image
Great portrait photographers are great mythologists.
Roland Barthes
Image
A photographer's best pictures are from deep inside him, and also some of the worst. Some photographers enjoy distinguished careers without ever taking personal photographs. Others, audaciously and arrogantly and courageously discharge their most private feelings through photography. Trouble is, sometimes it all adds up to baloney.
Burk Uzzle
Image
I try with my pictures to raise a question, to provoke a debate, so that we can discuss problems together and come up with solutions.
Sebastiao Salgado
Image
There's a rapport that any photographer is going to have with his subject matter. And if you don't have a rapport, you're going to find the task of photographing it difficult.
Bruce Barnbaum
Image
All the photographers were trying to just get me off, which was hilarious. But it was very, very amusing.
Bella Heathcote
Image
My aim is increasingly to make my photographs look so much like photographs [rather than paintings, etchings, etc.] that unless one has eyes and sees, they won't be seen - and still everyone will never forget having once looked at them.
Alfred Stieglitz
Image
Because powerful images are fixed in the mind more readily than words, the photographer needs no interpreter. A photograph means the same thing all over the world and no translator is required. Photography is truly a universal language, transcending all boundaries of race, politics and nationality.
Arthur Rothstein
Image
I don't know what good composition is.... Sometimes for me composition has to do with a certain brightness or a certain coming to restness and other times it has to do with funny mistakes. There's a kind of rightness and wrongness and sometimes I like rightness and sometimes I like wrongness.
