| [Photography] is a way of feeling, of touching, | No place is boring, if you've had a good |
| of loving. What you have caught on film is | night's sleep and have a pocket full of |
| captured forever . . . it remembers little things, | unexposed film. - Robert Adams |
| long after you have forgotten everything. | |
| - Aaron Siskind | Sometimes you can tell a large story with a |
| | tiny subject. - Eliot Porter |
| There is nothing worse than a sharp image of | |
| a fuzzy concept. - Ansel Adams | You learn to see by practice. It's just like |
| | playing tennis, you get better the more you |
| "Simply look with perceptive eyes at the | play. The more you look around at things, the |
| world about you, and trust to your own | more you see. The more you photograph, the |
| reactions and convictions. Ask yourself: | more you realize what can be photographed |
| "Does this subject move me to feel, think | and what can't be photographed. You just have |
| and dream? Can I visualize a print - my own | to keep doing it. - Eliot Porter |
| personal statement of what I feel and want to | |
| convey - from the subject before me?" | |

| One should really use the camera as though | You've got to push yourself harder. You've got |
| tomorrow you'd be stricken blind. | to start looking for pictures nobody else could |
| - Dorothea Lange | take. You've got to take the tools you have and |
| | probe deeper. - William Albert Allard |
| I almost never set out to photograph a | |
| landscape, nor do I think of my camera as a | ...words and pictures can work together to |

| first thought is always of light. - Galen | |
| Rowell | Memory is very important, the memory of |
| | each photo taken, flowing at the same speed |
| | as the event. During the work, you have to be |
| | sure that you haven't left any holes, that you've |
