These portraits illustrate why
I normally like photographing
landscapes. No two-way
conversation is necessary.
Once I see what I like the most
about their personality, I point
and shoot. For most portraits,
it is necessary to talk to
the subject to develop the most
cursory of relationships prior
to pushing the button to expose
the subject’s personality.

worth the look.]

If a photograph stirs
the emotions in
at least one person,
that makes it art.
This includes
the person who
clicked the shutter.

I feel that photography is becoming like T.V. Many people just want a graphic, easy image. My teacher said that a photo must communicate in less than 5 seconds, the amount of time people look at photos. However, this practice often leaves the “quiet pictures”(according to William Albert Allard) and “the second lookers” (according to Dorothea Lange) out in the cold. To me, “quiet pictures” are like crossword puzzles. But some people do not like crossword puzzles because then it forces them to think.

What I really enjoy about night
shooting is that I’m not just
recording fractions of a second
of time, but minutes, and
sometimes hours of time on film.
