"After the event has ended, the picture will still exist, conferring on the event a kind of immortality (and importance) it would never otherwise have enjoyed." - Susan Sontag

"...The most important thing lay elsewhere, in roaming freely at the disposal of the eye" - Henri Cartier-Bresson

Photography is "a way of shouting, of freeing oneself, not of proving or asserting one's own originality. It is a way of life." - Henri Cartier-Bresson

Film equipment:

Pentax K1000, and either Tri-X 400 or TMAX 400 film for all black and white photographs. I've no idea what the film labs do; images here are scanned from the negatives. I like the grain, contrast, focus and tone of black and white film frames.

Colour photos equipment:

Canon EOS 300D.
