About photography

'Youth never moves me. I seldom see anything very beautiful in a young face. I do, though - in the downward curve of Maugham's lips, in Isak Dinesen's hands. So much has been written there, there is so much to read, if one could only read.'
- Richard Avedon

'The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.'
- Dorothea Lange

'To take a photograph means to recognize – simultaneously and within a fraction of a second – both the fact itself and the rigorous organisation of visually perceived forms that give it meaning.'
- Henri Cartier-Bresson

'I put all my trust in intuition, which contributes so much more than rational thought.'
- Robert Doisneau

I recommend viewing the first and third video under 'tubed photography' on the right hand side-bar. To see enlarged versions of the photos below, just click on the images.
