Pictures must not be too picturesque.

'The Gardener' is more than a marvellous collection of images by a master photographer.

A half dozen pictures would just about be enough for the life of an artist, for my life.

To photograph is to confer importance.

So successful has been the camera's role in beautifying the world that photographs, rather than the world, have become the standard of the beautiful.

30 years and 55 pictures - not more than five that were any good, or any good for me.

It is not enough to photograph the obviously picturesque.

I've got a great collection of photography.

The more pictures you see, the better you are as a photographer.

I want a nice picture book with 12 pictures - I do my best with that format.
