—You have a lifetime to learn technique. But I can teach you what is more important than technique, how to see; learn that and all you have to do afterwards is press the shutter.
Garry Winogrand
This is something I strive for more and more the older I get. Seeing in your mind and trying to show others your vision will always increase the impact of your photos compared to striving for excellence in the first place.
A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know.
Diane Arbus

Anton Corbijn
