I Think Photography Is Being Recognized And

"simply Look With Perceptive Eyes At The World About You, And Trust To Your Own Reactions And Convictions. Ask Yourself: "does This Subject Move Me To Feel, Think And Dream? Can I Visualize A Print - My Own Personal Statement Of What I Feel And Want To Convey - From The Subject Before Me?""

The [35mm] Camera Is For Life And For People, The Swift And Intense Moments Of Life.

A Photograph Is Not An Accident - It Is A Concept.

The Next Time You Pick Up A Camera Think Of It Not As An Inflexible And Automated Robot, But As A Flexible Instrument Which You Must Understand To Properly Use. An Electronic And Optical Miracle Creates Nothing On Its Own! Whatever Beauty And Excitement It Can Represent Exist In Your Mind And Spirit To Begin With.

It Is Increasingly Clear To Me That My Art Relates More And More To A Sublimation Of My Closeness To The Natural World, It's Events, Light Itself, And The Positive It Is A Personal Expression Based On Observation And Reaction, That I Am Not Able To Define Except In Terms Of The Work Itself.
