photography

The greatest moments are right in front of you.

My pictures are about making people realize we've got to protect those who can't speak for themselves.

There is the satisfaction of being able to look at the image without flinching. There is the pleasure of flinching.

PHOTOGRAPHY is the best way, where you can SAVE your sweet PAST.

Photography is about capturing souls, not smiles.

She believed photography to be the greatest of all art forms because it was simultaneously junk food and gourmet cuisine, because you could snap dozens of pictures in a couple of hours, then spend dozens of hours perfecting just a couple of them.

In the dry places, men begin to dream. Where the rivers run sand, there is something in man that begins to flow. West of the 98TH Meridian - where it sometimes rain and it sometimes doesn__ _ towns, like weeds, spring up when it rains, dry up when it stops. But in a dry climate, the husk of the plant remains. The stranger might find, as if preserved in amber, something of the green life that was once lived there, and the ghosts of men who have gone on to a better place. The withered towns are empty, but not uninhabited. Faces sometimes peer out from the broken windows, or whisper from the sagging balconies, as if this place _ now that is dead _ had come to life. As if empty it is forever occupied. Reproduced in THE BORSCHT BELT from The Works of Love by Wright Morris by permission of the University of Nebraska Press. Copyright 1949, 1951 by Wright Morris.

In a few years, it is very likely that this series will be considered a milestone in the history of Singapore photography.

A photograph is both a pseudo-presence and a token of absence. Like a wood fire in a room, photographs__specially those of people, of distant landscapes and faraway cities, of the vanished past__re incitements to reverie. The sense of the unattainable that can be evoked by photographs feeds directly into the eroticfeelings of those for whom desirability is enhanced by distance.

When you press the shutter, time won't see which camera, it will still get freezed in a moment... and thats the best Farewell for that moment.

I am intrigued with scriptural mythology that tells us that God created a divine feminine presence to dwell amongst humanity. This concept has had a constant influence on the work. I have imagined her as ubiquitous, watchful, and often in motion. This work is, in effect, the photographic image of the invisible.

A lot of photographers think that if they buy a better camera they__l be able to take better photographs. A better camera won__ do a thing for you if you don__ have anything in your head or in your heart.

As a war correspondent and a mother, I've learned to live in two different realities. It's not always easy to make the transition from a beautiful London park filled with children to a war zone, but it's my choice. I choose to live in peace and witness war- to experience the worst in people but to remember the beauty.

Be in love with the moments of your life.

Any moment which is not captured is loss in events of time.

If you want to learn what someone fears losing, watch what they photograph.

I used to have a theory about photographing. It was a sense of getting in between two actions, or in between acton and repose.

Let__ not only take great photos, but let__ make great photos with our lives.
