The Lines of My Hand
|
| gptkbp:notable_quote |
“ The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.”
“ I am not a photographer. I am a storyteller.” “ There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment.” “ I think that the camera is a tool for seeing.” “ The eye should see the world as it is.” “ I am not interested in the moment, I am interested in the experience.” |
