~Author Unknown

~Richard Avedon

Actually, I’m not all that interested in the subject of photography. Once the picture is in the box, I’m not all that interested in what happens next. Hunters, after all, aren’t cooks.

~Henri Cartier Bresson

The camera cannot lie, but it can be an accessory to untruth.

~Harold Evans

Buying a Nikon doesn’t make you a photographer. It makes you a Nikon owner.

~Author Unknown
