Masterfully crafted photos are essential today, they can help us understand what makes a good image, not just a popular one. #tellnyt
In the daily flood of images, carefully constructed, meaningfull photographs are more important than ever #tellnyt #CartierBresson
"decisive moment" will always be there, and there will be those who seek it. Digital has only increased the general mediocrity. #tellnyt
True photographers are artist and storytellers. They care about a carefully constructed images rather than just getting a shot. #tellnyt
#tellnyt "Photographs are no longer rare artifacts, nor primarily a means of learning about the exotic or unknown." ... But they can be.
It certainly doesn't. Photography was shaped by those masters - by taking more photos we learn to becomes masters. #tellnyt
