In the spirit of Vivian Maier, who worked unaided by any publication or commercial shooting, I set up the Emerging Photographer Fund

It's a lot of work living the life that you want to live, but that's what I'm doing.

Religion: A lot of fanciful ideas inspired by wishful thinking. Science: A lot of logical ideas based on the best evidence available. Which should we have faith in?

Don’t shoot what it looks like. Shoot what it feels like.

If one hears bad music, it is one's duty to drown it by one's conversation.

Seek to make a person blush for their guilt rather than shed their blood.
