My train of thought in photography for 2009:

"If I am looking for a story at all, it is in my relationship to the subject - the story that tells me, rather than that I tell."

- Bruce Davidson

"To photograph everything I cared about so it wouldn‘t disappear forever and people 100 years hence would know us. That‘s when I asked for my first camera."

- Alessandra Sanguinetti

2008's old skool thinking

"It is the photo that takes you; one must not take photos."

- HCB

"this world dense with writing that surrounds us on all sides"

- Italo Calvino

"The photographer is filled with doubt. Nothing will soothe him."

- Raymond Depardon

"I only know how to approach a place by walking. For what does a street photographer do but walk and watch and wait and talk, and then watch and wait some more, trying to remain confident that the unexpected, the unknown, or the secret heart of the known awaits just around the corner."

- Alex Webb
