I'm not certain anybody has ever
created anything with a camera. Perhaps it is more accurate to say that God
creates, and that some human beings discover. Discovery is not accidental. We
discover only when we make ourselves ready to receive and photographers seek
discovery by mastering their craft. But it begins somewhere else. It begins
with daisies, kids, awful scenes, falling in love, or growing old. It begins
with that which matters to you. And it ends with visual statements that express
what matters to you about these things. It is not sight the camera satisfies so
thoroughly, but the mind.
