~ ...words and pictures can work together to communicate more powerfully than either alone. ~

~ Now to consult the rules of composition before making a picture is a little like consulting the law of gravitation before going for a walk. Such rules and laws are deduced from the accomplished fact; they are the products of reflection . . . ~

Edward Weston

~ Sometimes you can tell a large story with a tiny subject. ~

Eliot Porter

John Sexton

~ You can find pictures anywhere. It's simply a matter of noticing things and organizing them. You just have to care about what's around you and have a concern with humanity and the human comedy. ~

Elliott Erwitt

~ The difficulty with color is to go beyond the fact that it's color – to have it be not just a colorful picture but really be a picture about something. It's difficult. So often color gets caught up in color, and it becomes merly decorative. Some photographers use it brilliantly to make visual statements combining color and content; otherwise it is empty. ~

Mary Ellen Mark

~ It is light that reveals, light that obscures, light that communicates. It is light I "listen" to. The light late in the day has a distinct quality, as it fades toward the darkness of evening. After sunset there is a gentle leaving of the light, the air begins to still, and a quiet descends. I see magic in the quiet light of dusk. I feel quiet, yet intense energy in the natural elements of our habitat. A sense of magic prevails. A sense of mystery. It is a time for contemplation, for listening - a time for making photographs. ~

John Sexton

~ I think the best pictures are often on the edges of any situation, I don't find photo- graphing the situation nearly as interesting as photographing the edges. ~

William Albert Allard

~ Photography is my passion. ~

Alfred Stieglitz

~ The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera. ~

Dorothea Lange

~ Above all, I craved to seize the whole essence, in the confines of one single photograph, of some situation that was in the process of unrolling itself before my eyes. ~

Henri Cartier Bresson
