A good snapshot stops a moment from running away.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I like using snapshot cameras because they're idiot-proof. I have bad eyesight, and I'm no good at focusing big cameras.
I love catching a snapshot of something that is just about to happen. Or maybe something that just happened, you know. But I like especially that just-before kind of feeling.
The funny thing is that I almost find it more difficult now to take a still picture than to be behind a moving camera. I'm just so much more inspired and comfortable and confident when I have that whole operation going. I feel more connected. Snapping a moment doesn't seem relevant to me anymore.
A photograph can be an instant of life captured for eternity that will never cease looking back at you.
If you aren't taking a representative sample, you won't get a representative snapshot.
I think that's the strength of photography - to decide the decisive moment, to click in the moment to come up with a picture that never comes back again.
Like most photographers, I try to capture a moment in my work.
A photograph is a moment - when you press the button, it will never come back.
I'm no snapshot artist. I make very careful choices always, even if I'm using a 35mm camera.
The photograph itself doesn't interest me. I want only to capture a minute part of reality.
