“It fascinates me that there is a variety of feeling about what I do. I’m not a premeditative photographer. I see a picture and I make it. If I had a chance, I’d be out shooting all the time. You don’t have to go looking for pictures. The material is generous. You go out and the pictures are staring at you.”- Lee Friedlander 

 

 

 

 

“Quoting the photographers” is an ongoing series of photographic insights.
