  Photography suits the temper of this ageof    I think the best pictures are often on the edges  
  active bodies and minds. It is a perfect    of any situation, I don't find photographing the  
  medium for one whose mind is teeming with    situation nearly as interesting as  
  ideas, imagery, for a prolific worker who    photographing the edges. - William Albert  
  would be slowed down by painting or    Allard  
  sculpting, for one who sees quickly and acts      
  decisively, accurately. - Edward Weston    No place is boring, if you've had a good  
      night's sleep and have a pocket full of  
  The difficulty with color is to go beyond the    unexposed film. - Robert Adams  
  fact that it's color to have it be not just a      
  colorful picture but really be a picture about      
  something. It's difficult. So often color gets      
  caught up in color, and it becomes merely      
  decorative. Some photographers use [ it ]      
  brilliantly to make visual statements combining      
  color and content; otherwise it is empty.

  Photography is about finding out what can    "Simply look with perceptive eyes at the  
  happen in the frame. When you put four    world about you, and trust to your own  
  edges around some facts, you change those    reactions and convictions. Ask yourself:  
  facts. - Gary Winogrand    "Does this subject move me to feel, think  
      and dream? Can I visualize a print - my own  
  You've got to push yourself harder. You've got    personal statement of what I feel and want to  
  to start looking for pictures nobody else could    convey - from the subject before me?"  
  take. You've got to take the tools you have and    - Ansel Adams  
  probe deeper. - William Albert Allard      
      Above all, it's hard learning to live with vivid  
      mental images of scenes I cared for and failed  
      to photograph. It is the edgy existence within  
      me of these unmade images that is the only  
      assurance that the best photographs are yet to  
      be made. - Sam Abell
