"When the reality looks magnificent, a real art of photography has only one choice: To capture this beauty magnificently!"
"Today, I'm very careful not to mention very specific locations when I write or give captions."
"What I end up shooting is the situation. I shoot the composition and my subject is going to help the composition or not."
"And I remember walking in there and, I must say, I was quite unnerved the closer I got to it."
"I think landscape photography in general is somewhat undervalued."
"You know, the camera is not meant just to show misery."
"Within two hours of where I live, you have mountains and desert as location. I like the natural elements that abstract into light, texture, shape and shadow."

"Millions of men have lived to fight, build palaces and boundaries, shape destinies and societies; but the compelling force of all times has been the force of originality and creation profoundly affecting the roots of human spirit."
"Landscape photography is the supreme test of the photographer - and often the supreme disappointment."
"When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence."
"No man has the right to dictate what other men should perceive, create or produce, but all should be encouraged to reveal themselves, their perceptions and emotions, and to build confidence in the creative spirit."
