"With the selfies, a photographer has finally found his place in a photograph."
"All photographs are memento mori. To take a photograph is to participate in another person's (or thing's) mortality, vulnerability, mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs testify to time's relentless melt."
"When the reality looks magnificent, a real art of photography has only one choice: To capture this beauty magnificently!"
"I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself."
"I was an artistic dilettante for a while, in photography and collage and the visual arts."
"Unlike any other visual image, a photograph is not a rendering, an imitation or an interpretation of its subject, but actually a trace of it. No painting or drawing, however naturalist, belongs to its subject in the way that a photograph does."
"Today, I'm very careful not to mention very specific locations when I write or give captions."
"Actually, I'm not all that interested in the subject of photography. Once the picture is in the box, I'm not all that interested in what happens next. Hunters, after all, aren't cooks."
"For me, the most important thing I learned was just honing my eye. I think I had a good eye."
