My Heart at Evening
Toward evening you hear the cry of the bats.
Two black horses bound in the pasture,
The red maple rustles,
The walker along the road sees ahead the small tavern.
Nuts and young wine taste delicious,
Delicious: to stagger drunk into the darkening woods.
Village bells, painful to hear, echo through the black fir branches,
Dew forms on the face.

“Composition is an essential part of a good photograph; photography as an art has no meaning without it. But craftsmanship is a means and not an end. Expression is the end. If composition is made the end, the result will be self-conscious, artificial and lifeless.
Expression and composition are like life and body – a unity. Body by itself is a corpse.”

“I go to the busiest, public places to discover something very personal and private. It is an inescapable truth that the resulting photographs are as much about my inner state as they are about the external world they were made in. They are all self-portraits.”

“The poetic act consists of suddenly seeing that an idea splits up into a number of equal motifs and of grouping them; they rhyme.”
