"A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed."

"We must remember that a photograph can hold just as much as we put into it, and no one has ever approached the full possibilities of the medium."

Photography

"Photography, as a powerful medium of expression and communications, offers an infinite variety of perception, interpretation and execution."

Photography
