Frame in terms of what you want to have in the picture, not about making a nice picture, that anybody can do.

In the end, maybe the correct ...

In the end, maybe the correct language would be how the fact of putting four edges around a collection of information or facts transforms it. A photograph is not what was photographed, it's something else.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

I don't know if all the women ...

I don't know if all the women in the photographs are beautiful, but I do know that the women are beautiful in the photographs.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

You see something happening an...

You see something happening and you bang away at it. Either you get what you saw or you get something else--and whichever is better you print.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

If you didnвЂ™t take the picture, you werenвЂ™t there.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

Well, I'm not going to get int...

Well, I'm not going to get into that. I think that those kind of distinctions and lists of titles like "street photographer" are so stupid. I'm a photographer, a still photographer. That's it.

No one moment is most important. Any moment can be something.

The world isn't tidy; it's a mess. I don't try to make it neat.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

You've got to deal with how photographs look, what's there, not how they're made.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

I don't have anything to say i...

I don't have anything to say in any picture. But you do, from your experience, surmise something. You do give a photograph symbolic content, narrative content... But it's nothing to worry about!

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

When IвЂ™m photographing I see...

When IвЂ™m photographing I see life.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

I photograph to find out what something will look like photographed,

Sometimes I feel like . . . the world is a place I bought a ticket to. ItвЂ™s a big show for me, as if it wouldnвЂ™t happen if I wasnвЂ™t there with a camera.

There is no special way a photograph should look.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

Photos have no narrative content. They only describe light on surface.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

Sometimes photographers mistake emotion for what makes a great street photograph.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

There are things I back off from trying to talk about, you know. Particularly my own work. Also, there may be things better left unsaid. At times I'd much rather talk about other (people's) work.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

The only thing that's difficul...

The only thing that's difficult is reloading when things are happening. Can you get it done fast enough?

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

I really try to divorce myself...

I really try to divorce myself from any thought of possible use of this stuff. That's part of the discipline. My only purpose while I'm working is to try to make interesting photographs, and what to do with them is another act - an alter consideration. Certainly while I'm working, I want them to be as useless as possible.

Garry Winogrand 03.03.2018 03:03:03 43 quotes

I get totally out of myself. I...

I get totally out of myself. It's the closest I come to not existing, I think, which is the best - which is to me attractive.
