The photograph reverses the purpose of travel which until now had been to encounter the strange and unfamiliar.

Travel becomes a strategy for accumulating photographs.

To take a photograph is to participate in another person's mortality vulnerability mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it all photographs testify to time's relentless melt.

Visual ideas combined with technology combined with personal interpretation equals photography. Each must hold it's own if it doesn't the thing collapses.

As an avid photographer I also took advantage of the latest technology in photography - digital photography - to post photos on my website on a daily basis.

Advancements in technology have become so commonplace that sometimes we forget to stop and think about how incredible it is that a girl on her laptop in Texas can see photos and cell phone video in real time that a young college student has posted of a rally he's at in Iran.

In my mind I needed a symbol of today's technology and I realized that what I wanted to photograph was the Space Shuttle. And so that's where Places of Power came into being.

I support any procedure that allows photographers to express themselves whether that involves color black and white platinum palladium and digital technology.

I never wore a tie voluntarily even though I was forced to wear one for photos when I was young and for official events at school. I used to wrap my tie in a newspaper and whenever the teacher checked I would quickly put it on again. I'm not used to it. Most Bolivians don't wear ties.

The most important thing you learn as a sports photographer is anticipation - not where the action is taking place but where it's going to take place. Not where the subject is now but where they're going to be.
