The very secret of life for me, I believed, was to maintain in the midst of rushing events an inner tranquility.

Actually, it's nature itself that creates the most beautiful pictures, I'm only choosing the perspective.

It is no accident that the photographer becomes a photographer any more than the lion tamer becomes a lion tamer.

A photograph is a click away. A good photograph is a hundred clicks away and a better one, a thousand clicks away

When people look at my pictures I want them to feel the way they do when they want to read a line of a poem twice.

I know the best moments can never be captured on film, even as I spend nearly half my life trying to do just that.

Photographing a culture in the here and now often means photographing the intersection of the present with the past.

I've never taken a photograph of someone and created a persona, I've just discovered what was already there.

Taking a picture is like giving a piece of your soul away. You allow other people to see the world through your eyes.

Beauty can be seen in all things, seeing and composing the beauty is what separates the snapshot from the photograph.

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

Unpredictability. Accidents. Not good when you’re engaging in, say, brain surgery, but when lighting...wonderful!

Safety first when taking selfie's. Don't put yourself in harms way for a shot. Photoshop it. NetworkEtiquette.net

When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.

My photograph represents me as a person, but not as a personality. My personality is best represented by a Rorschach test.
