I don't have anything against colour. It is just not my first preference. I have always found black and white photographs to be quieter and more mysterious than those made in colour.

Nothing is ever the same twice because everything is always gone forever, and yet each moment has infinite photographic possibilities.

I often think of my work as visual haiku. It is an attempt to evoke and suggest through as few elements as possible rather than to describe with tremendous detail.

I gravitate towards places where humans have been and are no more, to the edge of man's influence, where the elements are taking over or covering man's traces.

We see in colour all the time. Everything around us is in colour. Black and white is therefore immediately an interpretation of the world, rather than a copy.

Perhaps most intriguing of all is that it is possible to photograph what is impossible for the human eye to see - cumulative time.

The golden rule in the arts, as far as I am concerned, is that all rules are meant to be broken.

I believe that photographers should be passionate, determined, disciplined and ready to seek out their own styles and identities.

Parks and gardens are the quintessential intimate landscapes. People use them all the time, leaving their energy and memories behind. It's what's left behind that I like to photograph.

I prefer to think of photography as a never ending journey with infinite possibilities. I love to return to places to re photograph. Nothing is ever the same. The options are endless.

We all have choices and must make them for ourselves.

Separation Your absence has gone through me Like thread through a needle. Everything I do is stitched with its color.

Our survival, the future of our civilization, possibly the existence of mankind, depends on American leadership

We all need lots of powerful long range goals to help us past the short-term obstacles

Contemporary politics is all about phony energy, about running around slamming doors for the sake of it-or, more to the point, opening them and tossing through a huge sack of taxpayer dollars.

Driving a car, you are in danger of killing; walking or standing, of being killed.

Women are much smarter then men and often are much more political creatures, so they can have the ability to manipulate men, particularly on a boat.

I've learned to look like I'm listening to long confusing plots of cartoons and comic books when I'm actually sound asleep or making grocery shopping lists in my head.

I think that I shall never see A billboard lovely as a tree. Perhaps, unless the billboards fall, I'll never see a tree at all.

Nature taking its course - hunter and prey, the endless circle of life and death.

India has lot of talent. What I am happy with is that the talent keeps on coming. Certainly it could be nice, though I am not terribly keen on seeing my successor yet.
