To Me, Photography Is The Simultaneous Recognition, In A Fraction Of A Second, Of The Significance Of An Event As Well As Of A Precise Organization Of Forms Which Give That Event Its Proper Expression. And This Organization, This Precision, Will Always Escape You, If You Do Not Appreciate What A Picture Is, If You Do Not Understand That The Composition, The Logic, The Equilibrium Of The Surfaces And Values Are The Only Ways Of Giving Meaning To All That Is Continuously Appearing And Vanishing Before Our Very Eyes.

Photography Is An Immediate Reaction, Drawing Is A Meditation.

To Take Photographs Means To Recognize - Simultaneously And Within A Fraction Of A Second - Both The Fact Itself And The Rigorous Organization Of Visually Perceived Forms That Give It Meaning. It Is Putting One's Head, One's Eye And One's Heart On The Same Axis.
