The Only Thing Which Completely Was An Amazement To Me And Brought Me To Photography Was The Work Of Munkacsi. When I Saw The Photograph Of Munkacsi Of The Black Kids Running In A Wave, I Couldn't Believe Such A Thing Could Be Caught With The Camera. I Said, 'damn It', I Took My Camera And Went Out Into The Street.
