“ For me, the camera is a sketch book, an instrument of intuition and spontaneity. ”
Your first 10,000 photographs are your worst.
~ Henri Cartier-Bresson
It is through living that we discover ourselves, at the same time as we discover the world around us.
Reality offers us such wealth that we must cut some of it out on the spot, simplify. The question is, do we always cut out what we should?
We photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing, and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again. We cannot develop and print a memory.
