Photography Is Like Fencing. You Must Keep

Poetry Is The Essence Of Everything, And It’s Through Deep Contact With Reality And Living Fully That You Reach Poetry. Very Often I See Photographers Cultivating The Strangeness Or Awkwardness Of A Scene, Thinking It Is Poetry. No. Poetry Is Two Elements Which Are Suddenly Conflict — A Spark Between Two Elements. But It’s Given Very Seldom, And You Can’t Look For It. It’s Like If You Look For Inspiration. No, It Just Comes By Enriching Yourself And Living.

The Camera Can Be A Machine Gun, A Warm Kiss, A Sketchbook. Shooting A Camera Is Like Saying, Yes, Yes, Yes. There Is No Maybe. All The Maybes Should Go In The Trash.

The Simultaneous Recognition, In A Fraction Of A Second, Of The Significance Of An Event As Well As The Precise Organization Of Forms Which Gives That Event Its Proper Expression... In Photography, The Smallest Thing Can Be A Great Subject. The Little Human Detail Can Become A Leitmotif.

Pictures, Regardless Of How They Are Created And Recreated, Are Intended To Be Looked At. This Brings To The Forefront Not The Technology Of Imaging, Which Of Course Is Important, But Rather What We Might Call The Eyenology (seeing).

Time Runs And Flows And Only Our Death Succeeds In Catching Up With It. Photography Is A Blade Which, In Eternity, Impales The Dazzling Moment.
