They ... Asked Me: 'how Do You

What Reinforces The Content Of A Photograph Is The Sense Of Rhythm - The Relationship Between Shapes And Values.

The Intensive Use Of Photographs By Mass Media Lays Ever Fresh Responsibilities Upon The Photographer. We Have To Acknowledge The Existence Of A Chasm Between The Economic Needs Of Our Consumer Society And The Requirements Of Those Who Bear Witness To This Epoch. This Affects Us All, Particularly The Younger Generations Of Photographers. We Must Take Greater Care Than Ever Not To Allow Ourselves To Be Separated From The Real World And From Humanity.

Time Runs And Flows And Only Our Death Succeeds In Catching Up With It. Photography Is A Blade Which, In Eternity, Impales The Dazzling Moment.

To Me, Photography Is The Simultaneous Recognition, In A Fraction Of A Second, Of The Significance Of An Event As Well As Of A Precise Organization Of Forms Which Give That Event Its Proper Expression. And This Organization, This Precision, Will Always Escape You, If You Do Not Appreciate What A Picture Is, If You Do Not Understand That The Composition, The Logic, The Equilibrium Of The Surfaces And Values Are The Only Ways Of Giving Meaning To All That Is Continuously Appearing And Vanishing Before Our Very Eyes.

Memory Is Very Important, The Memory Of Each Photo Taken, Flowing At The Same Speed As The Event.
