Garry Winogrand
From the PBS show Creativity, 1982. An excellent segment featuring interviews, commentary, and shots of Winogrand shooting on the street.
I WILL POST INTERMITTENT AND, HOPEFULLY, INTERESTING PHOTOGRAPHS, PHOTOGRAPHERS, AND OPINIONS. IF I REALLY LIKE IT I WILL POST IT. "Spherical aberration is an optical effect observed in an optical device (lens, mirror, etc.) that occurs due to the increased refraction of light rays when they strike a lens or a reflection of light rays when they strike a mirror near its edge, in comparison with those that strike nearer the center."

Square America Snapshots & Vernacular Photography
Square America Snapshots & Vernacular Photography
Think of your photographs in 20 years, or 40 years. Time changes how a photograph is viewed. I wonder if I would have loved these photographs without the passage of time? Many of them I would.

The Online Photographer: Digital and its Discontents
The Online Photographer: Digital and its Discontents
I have assumed that there was not a fundamental difference between film and digital. For me, in my photography, there isn't. but I agree with the distinctions and ideas in this article. The joy and challenge of looking at photographs is that it is a remnant of a real interaction at a specific moment in time, the more this interaction or connection is weakened the less interesting, and the less valuable, the photograph becomes. For me photography is sharing a way of seeing.
