Do photographs
convey a reality, a depiction of reality or a secret? Perhaps this is the most beautiful and intriguing paradox about photography. Here is a collection of my favorite photography quotes on the subject...
"A
photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know."
-Diane
Arbus
"Photography
through the camera is an instrument of detection. We photograph not only what
we know, but also what we don't know"
- Lisette Model
"I like
photographs which leave something to the imagination."
– Fay Godwin
"If you are
out there shooting, things will happen for you. If you’re not out there, you’ll
only hear about it."
– Jay Maisel
"Life is
like a good black and white photograph, there's black, there's white, and lots
of shades in between."
- Karl Heiner
"Photography
deals exquisitely with appearances, but nothing is what it appears to be."
- Duane Michals
"In
photography there is a reality so subtle that it becomes more real than reality."
- Alfred Stieglitz
