Fuck sell outs

   

I'm pushed by a dull perturbance...and to compensate - I spy on your photoshopped life...(photocredit: illuminazzy)

    

The few essential fotoquotes:

Stare. It is the way to educate your eye, and more. Stare, pry, listen, eavesdrop. Die knowing something. You are not here long. -- Walker Evans

 

..but when a young Tucson student showed W. Eugene Smith (as hundreds of others had done) her portfolio, he was kind, patient, and perceptive, as usual; and he asked her if she were in love; she said no; "You can't photograph if you're not in love," he told her. -- Ben Maddow, Let Truth Be the Prejudice

 

Good photos have come when I least controlled the situation. The process reminds me more of fishing than it does of shooting. I look through the lens; I create my composition - banal, boring. Get tired, get distracted - click and success. As though the photographic angels, upon whom it all depends, had begged, 'Don't look through the lens, let us work in peace.' Sometimes I have not even recognized my own photographs. -- Gueorgui Pinkhassov, Magnum
