I was scared to do anything in the studio because it felt so claustrophobic. I wanted to be somewhere where things could happen and the subject wasn't just looking back at you.

It's a heavy weight, the camera. Now we have modern and lightweight, small plastic cameras, but in the '70s they were heavy metal.

There are still so many places on our planet that remain unexplored. I'd love to one day peel back the mystery and understand them.

When you are younger, the camera is like a friend and you can go places and feel like you're with someone, like you have a companion.

I am impressed with what happens when someone stays in the same place and you took the same picture over and over and it would be different, every single frame.

I feel a responsibility to my backyard. I want it to be taken care of and protected.

My lens of choice was always the 35 mm. It was more environmental. You can't come in closer with the 35 mm.

I still need the camera because it is the only reason anyone is talking to me.

Coming tight was boring to me, just the face... it didn't have enough information.
