If You Keep Your Cool, You'll Get

I Like To Think I Keep My Mind Open. When I Walk The Streets I Don't Look For Anything In Particular. I Come From A Philosophy That Believes You Shouldn't Have Preconceived Notions - That You Don't Need A Gimmick. That You Should Just Photograph What You React To - What You See.

If You've Got No Responsibility And Don't Have To Generate A Certain Amount Of Cash Each Month, And Can Live On A Shoestring, And Are Ambitious Enough, Then You Might Have A Chance. You Can Be Dedicated But That Is No Guarantee That You'll Make It. I Rely On A Hunch, A Little Luck, And Some Cunning.

I Don't Like Explosions. I Don't Mind Progress. But Digital Photography Has Made Every Man, Woman, Child And Chimpanzee A Photographer Of Sorts And Consequently Has Numbed Down The General Quality Of Photographs.

I Enjoy Nothing More Than Spending Time With My Loved Ones, Young And Old, And At Least Once A Year We Get Together For A Formal Family Photograph.

Covering A Historic Event Is Perfectly Legitimate. It's Not Sneaking Into Somebody's Boudoir... These People Belong To History, And Not To Record That If You Have The Opportunity Would Be Wrong.
