Quotes
Susan Derges

Henri Cartier-Bresson
To take photographs is to hold one’s breath when all faculties converge in the face of fleeing reality. It is at that moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy.
Rodney Smith
Photography is a response to the world, not a reflection of it.
Chuck Close
…everything comes out of the work itself – every idea comes out of something you’re already doing.
John Baldessari
…color as form, form as color. Not independent, but inseparable.
Jacques Cousteau

Andreas Gursky

Gregory Crewdson
