A Photographic Portrait Is A Picture Of Someone Who Knows He's Being Photographed, And What He Does With This Knowledge Is As Much A Part Of The Photograph As What He's Wearing Or How He Looks. He's Implicated In What's Happening, And He Has A Certain Real Power Over The Result.

I'm Beginning To Feel Like This. Caught The Incredible Sunshine Just In The Nick Of Time Today On My Walk. The Wall Of Rain Approaching From The West Desert Was Pretty Spectacular, Too. Along With Being Gorgeous, It Was Sooo Muddy. Which Made Driving Home In No Shoes So Very Fun :) If Only I Could Post Photos Here! A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words, Yes? If A Day Goes By Without My Doing Something Related To Photography, It's As Though I've Neglected Something Essential To My Existence, As Though I Had Forgotten To Wake Up.

There Was No Such Person As Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn Monroe Was An Invention Of Hers. A Genius Invention That She Created, Like An Author Creates A Character. She Understood Photography, And She Also Understood What Makes A Great Photograph. She Related To It As If She Were Giving A Performance. She Gave More To The Still Camera Than Any Actress-any Woman- I've Ever Photographed.

I've Worked Out Of A Series Of No's. No To Exquisite Light, No To Apparent Compositions, No To The Seduction Of Poses Or Narrative. And All These No's Force Me To The Yes. I Have A White Background. I Have The Person I'm Interested In And The Thing That Happens Between Us.
