| misrepresentations. - Mason Cooley | world about you, and trust to your own |
| | reactions and convictions. Ask yourself: |
| Memory is very important, the memory of | "Does this subject move me to feel, think |
| each photo taken, flowing at the same speed | and dream? Can I visualize a print - my own |
| as the event. During the work, you have to be | personal statement of what I feel and want to |
| sure that you haven't left any holes, that you've | convey - from the subject before me?" |
| captured everything, because afterwards it will | - Ansel Adams |
| be too late. - Henri Cartier Bresson | |
| | Now to consult the rules of composition before |
| | making a picture is a little like consulting the |
| | law of gravitation before going for a walk. |
| | Such rules and laws are deduced from the |
| | accomplished fact; they are the products of |
