As I have practiced it, photography produces pleasure by simplicity. I see something special and show it to the camera. A picture is produced. The moment is held until someone sees it. Then it is theirs.

Photography, alone of the arts, seems perfected to serve the desire humans have for a moment - this very moment - to stay.

It matters little how much equipment we use; it matters much that we be masters of all we do use.

My best work is often almost unconscious and occurs ahead of my ability to understand it.

A mad, keen photographer needs to get out into the world and work and make mistakes.
