I am realizing more and more that, for me, photography is a form of meditation. When I see something that moves me, I am fully present in my effort to do my best to capture it. It’s not pure non-thinking because I still have to deal with the technique of photography, but it's the kind of thinking that is simply a reponse to what's required at that moment. When I look at the photographs I made that way, I am filled with contentment from remembering that moment. The work is done and I move on. The photographs I like best are usually a gift to which I respond with acceptance, rarely something I pursue or demand. My work is so much about seeing things as they are.
