The master photographer once said
I tried to capture their dignity, their happiness, their love for life and children, their passionate singing and dancing, their strong patriotic feelings, their obligation to public health and education system, and their piety to religion. -Ernest Bazin
I like stories that are forgotten outside the front page. Usually, the most valuable and touching photos are often hidden in events that are not noticed by people. -Jonas bendiksen
The scene under the night. It is often impossible to know during the day. Those anxieties and anxieties in our hearts are released in the dark, and these anxieties and anxieties are suppressed and dominated by reason during the day. -Brasett
He knew he couldn't record the war because it was largely an emotion, but he captured it with his camera. He can record people's fears through a child's face. He recorded an emotion, not an event.
-john steinbeck describes robert capa.
He loves life and runs at hundreds of miles an hour. He seems to know that his life is coming to an end. He was the best photojournalist at that time. He has a quick mind and always finds the best position. He knows what he wants to shoot-this is the highest evaluation of a photojournalist.
-Raymond de Badong comments on Gilles Caron
For me, a photographer's cognition, at that moment, makes us realize the meaning of things themselves. Give a correct explanation to the event through accurate structural composition ... For me, photography is to integrate the mind, mind and eyes with the scene in front of me.
Henri Cartier Bersson
When you walk on a familiar hometown road, the surrounding scenery often brings you some surprises. Stop in front of a landscape that you are very familiar with, and you will be surprised to find that it is so different from what you expected. The light shines from another angle, and the landscape takes on a new outline in the sun, which you may never notice. When you are immersed in childhood dreams and memories, when you try to state those kind and endless childhood anecdotes, when you see that your once beloved hands are wrinkled, you will be at a loss.
As a photographer, it is necessary to keep an objective attitude towards the subjects, but it is difficult to be completely objective out of sympathy for these people who live on the edge.
I want to show you such a world, a world that makes me feel happy, an interconnected world of love, and a world full of warmth everywhere. I use my photos to prove to you that these beautiful things really exist.
The pressure to create a sensation will make people lose the ability to observe life.
We live in an era that is restricted and controlled by the media everywhere. I think photography should be such a medium: through it, people can rediscover the simplest emotions, just as people can experience the most primitive feelings through horseback riding and sailing.
Robert Doisneau
Good photography should be interesting. If we can call it good, it must be irrational and mysterious ... this has nothing to do with the photographer's own consciousness and desire. Image generation is so easy, just like a gift, without questioning and analysis.
Eliot Erwitt
Frank's photos are all about America, and every photo is a witness to American life. These bits and pieces of life are presented to people in the form of photos under the curious and sensitive gaze of Chinese people. Frank was born in Switzerland. He is introverted and gentle. He always takes a camera and savors American life. What I want to say to Frank is that you have a pair of eyes that can see things.
Jack Krujak
It is true that photographers try to capture images that fascinate them (perhaps to understand them, perhaps to expel them).
The gods said: you can't see them, but they do exist. It is a sacred and tangible existence, which has a strong influence on people's daily life and has always been the focus of Cristina Garcí a Rodero's works.
I like to look at people's faces. Every face seems to tell a story. When an experience is revealed through a character's face, I know it is not just a moment, but a story.
When I looked back, I saw the surging colors in Asia. It is this bright color that tells me to read and write under the light. Like a farmer waiting for rain, I pray for the strongest light.
Steve McCurry
I can't accept life as it is, because it is too complicated, so I resist life and often fight it. I have been trying to shape my life according to my habits and needs. In other words, I have injected too many artistic things into my life.
Photography can record all aspects of life, which can be said to be the most satisfactory means, so it has its documentary value. In the process of historical development, if we pour our feelings into one place, I think it is very meaningful to record these moments, and we all have to do these things.
Tina Modotti
Have an idea when shooting!
-Martin Mankazi
These things I recorded should not be forgotten, but they must never happen again.
Photography can tell people what happened on the battlefield.
When people see this photo, no matter how tired, angry and frustrated they are, they will be aroused with inner sympathy and pity. This made me involuntarily pick up the camera and record the most tragic scene in the world.
James Nashiwei
I swear never to take pictures of the war again, never again, stop here.
I must let myself forget the filth of war, the howling of the wounded and the groaning of the dying. I want to find a clean and pure place.
George Rodger
My theme is cyclists, hippies, pedestrians and artists. It is these ordinary people who are gradually breaking through social rules and looking for a different life. I was moved by their survival ability, which prompted me to keep picking up the camera.
Dennis stoke
Shooting people's daily life requires keen observation, such as the moment of gentle silence and the warm moment when people exchange eyes. These moments seem insignificant, but they embody the whole meaning of life.
In fact, the image of soldiers is striking because of its neutrality, and its theme is fixed outside the art form.
Every time you press the shutter, you are showing your thoughts about the world. You have chosen a location, and your work will map to this location. Photography should not only record facts, but also screen facts according to one's own experience.
Paul Perri Green.
I often put forward a series of negatives about my works: no precise lighting, no reasonable layout, no attractive posture or statement.
My work is still very different from fashion photography. Fashion photography is my livelihood, and I have no comment on it. But to be honest, I prefer to take pictures. I have always considered myself a photographer.
Portrait photographers take satisfactory photos to prepare for the subject.
All photos should be accurate. But many people never tell the truth.
Richard Eden
Every face I have ever seen seems to be deliberately hiding something, but sometimes, at a certain moment, some inner secrets will be revealed, so it has become my goal and hobby to seize the emotions that are revealed in these moments.
For many people, sitting down to take pictures is a very artificial thing. Not everyone can let down their guard and act as natural as usual in front of the camera. More often, our task is to help them show their true selves. This is why many times, I find that what I say to customers is far more important than what I do when I take pictures.
Philip Halsman
Photos are the embodiment of some kind of emotion, or inspired by some kind, full of love or sadness.
Nikolai Dihomilov
I only know how to walk into a place. What a street photographer should do is to walk and observe, wait and talk, then continue to observe and wait, and try to stick to his beliefs, believing that sudden, unknown or known secrets are in front of him.
Alex Weber
Photography is ultimately a question about who you are. He is pursuing the truth about himself, and pursuing the truth has become a habit.
A good photo must have good design elements: everything in the photo must be the most essential. It will never be as perfect as painting. It shouldn't be absolutely perfect, which will ruin it.
-Leonard Fried
News photography is always curious and likes to go out and see what is happening outside. I like the first morning when I arrive in a country I have never been to. This is an era of exploration and discovery, which is very exciting. You're curious. You don't know what will happen.
Thomas Hopkel
Great photographic works should be able to fully express a person's deepest feelings about the subject; Therefore, it is also a true expression of people's feelings about the whole life.
Ansel Adams
What I seek is a kind of inner peace. What I want to convey is not appearance, but a person's personality.
Portrait work is like a courtesy visit, which lasts about 15 or 20 minutes. A little longer will disturb the owner and make people feel like mosquitoes flying in their ears, and they are in danger of being bitten at any time.
Henri Cartier Bersson
Photography and painting complement each other.
For me, photography is always the spontaneous behavior of visual attention, which captures the moment and eternity.
The expression of painting to the present is to convey our consciousness through brush strokes;
Photography needs action, and painting needs deliberation.
My interest never lies in photography itself, but in the possibility it presents-by forgetting myself-to record the mood of the subject and the beauty of the form of the picture in a fraction of a second, in other words, the beauty of the geometric structure evoked by the picture.
The camera is my sketch book.
We discover and know the external world in our life, which makes us, and at the same time, we also respond to it. The world should establish a state of internal and external balance, and the two worlds should have a lasting dialogue, so that we can communicate with them in the only way.
For me, color is very important for news reports, but its reproduction ability is very limited. It stays at the chemical level, has no prior, and is as intuitive as painting. Contrary to the fact that black can show the most complex hue, color can only show some fragmented details.
Personally, photography is a way of understanding and cannot be separated from other visual expressions. It is a cry, a way to release yourself, not to prove or show that you are different. This is a way of life.
There are countless ways to describe people, but I can never say that "the characters in this book are pure fiction" or "any similarity with real people is a coincidence"
If we take a portrait, we want to grasp the inner activities of the subject, but only the relationship between the shirt and the skin can be presented through the camera lens, which is difficult to express.
As for drawing such a portrait with a pencil, it is up to the painter to control it.
For me, Kappa is a great warrior in a coat of wisdom, immortal.
He fought tirelessly for himself and those who were in the whirlpool of war.
His glory is due to fate.
