'If there is one sound piece of advice, which is to myself as much as anyone else, it is the potential of projects or prolonged themes. It's the equivalent of having a dog that needs to go for a walk. Projects need walking.'

'I probably spend more time looking at photographs than I do actually taking them. My shelves at home are lined with photography books.'
