It is more important to click with people than to click the shutter.

On the personal side, I was rock climbing and taking pictures with my friends. We took all sorts of portrait and action pictures, and I was thinking at the time that these are inherently difficult to focus correctly.

There's a natural set of constraints with mobile phones that force you to be a better photographer by acknowledging and observing the world around you.

With photography, I always think that it's not good enough.

There are only those certain people where things click - at least for me.

Everybody has their iPhone cameras, BlackBerry cameras, and I see those cameras pointed up at me all the time now, which is actually really good because of what it does for me and my band. There is no time for us not to be on our toes because they're on all the time whenever you're playing. I think it's very healthy.

I can zero in on subtle things because I'm holding the camera.

I still like to walk around and take photographs, but it's hard to do that if a lot of people are looking at you.
