I Did A Story For The Geographic

There Are Things That I Teach, About Building Photographs, And That's Why People Come To My Workshops. When People Come To The Workshops, They're Consumed With Seeking The Subject, And I Teach Seeking The Setting.

For Example, In My Dorm, At The University Of Kentucky, I Had The Only Camera. I Don't Think Anyone Came To College With A Camera, Other Than Me.

"you Know You Are Seeing Such A Photograph If You Say To Yourself, "i Could Have Taken That Picture. I've Seen Such A Scene Before, But Never Like That." It Is The Kind Of Photography That Relies For Its Strengths Not On Special Equipment Or Effects But On The Intensity Of The Photographer's Seeing. It Is The Kind Of Photography In Which The Raw Materials-light, Space, And Shape-are Arranged In A Meaningful And Even Universal Way That Gives Grace To Ordinary Objects."

The Class That I Teach Is Called "the Life Of A Photograph." It Takes Up The Question, Of The Billion Photographs That Were Taken Today, How Many Will Have A Life, And Why? So The New Reality Has Made The Question More Pertinent, Not Less Pertinent.
