gptkbp:famous_quote

“ The best thing about a picture is that it never changes, even when the people in it do.”
“ Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving.”
“ If you wait, people will forget your camera and the soul will drift up into view.”
“ I think it’s important to look at the world and see it as it is.”
“ I think there is a fine line between being a photographer and being a voyeur.”
“ To me, photography is an art of observation.”
“ You can take a picture of a person, but you can’t take a picture of their soul.”
“ To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place.”
