It’s a lot of work living the life that you want to live, but that’s what I’m doing.
Don’t shoot what it looks like. Shoot what it feels like.
Photographers can either look out the window at the world or they can look in the mirror.
The most important questions a human can ever ask must surely deserve the most convincing answers, not simply the most comforting?
Religion: A lot of fanciful ideas inspired by wishful thinking. Science: A lot of logical ideas based on the best evidence available. Which should we have faith in?
Only religion could justify killing an adult with a family because he carried out abortions of unwanted or unhealthy fetuses that don’t even have the intelligence of a typical fish.
So, according to the religious, you can only be good if you’re scared of the consequences of being bad? Strange, I thought people were good because they care about each other?
Science teaches you to open your eyes and appreciate the reality around you. Religion teaches you to close your eyes and cling to the fantasy within you.
The more tightly you cling to your faith, the looser your grip is on reality.
In the spirit of Vivian Maier, who worked unaided by any publication or commercial shooting, I set up the Emerging Photographer Fund.
