Most Photographs, To Me, Are Description, But

You Can Never Capture A Person In Picture, Never. You Might Get An Interesting Expression Or Gesture. I Almost Never Research A Picture Subject Ahead Of Time. I Think Karsh Is Full Of Baloney. Can You Imagine Spending A Whole Week Out In La Jolla With Jonas Salk Soaking Up His Ambiance, Then Wind Up Making Him Look As If He's In The Studio In Ottawa With His Thumb Under His Chin?

Photography Does Deal With 'truth' Or A Kind Of Superficial Reality Better Than Any Of The Other Arts, But It Never Questions The Nature Of Reality - It Simply Reproduces Reality. And What Good Is That When The Things Of Real Value In Life Are Invisible?

I Often Try To Photograph Things About A Person That Are Not Visible.

We Live In A Culture Where The One Who Shouts The Loudest Gets The Most Attention. It's Not In The Vulgar, It's Not In The Shock That One Finds Art. And It's Not The Excessively Beautiful. It's In Between; It's In Nuance.

Photography Is Very Presumptuous. Photographers Are Always Photographing Other People's Lives - Something They Know Nothing About - And Drawing Great Inferences Into It.
