“When I take photographs, my body inevitably enters a trancelike state. Briskly weaving my way through the avenues, every cell in my body becomes as sensitive as radar, responsive to the life of the streets... If I were to give it words, I would say: "I have no choice... I have to shoot this... I can't leave this place for another's eyes... I have to shoot it... I have no choice." An endless, murmuring refrain.” IfsWayGivingI CanStatesBodyEyeChoicesStreetsPhotographEndlessCellsMy WaySensitiveAvenuesRefrainRadarWeavingMurmuring Author:Daido Moriyama
“[My] photos are often out of focus, rough, streaky, warped, etc. But if you think about it, a normal human being will in one day perceive an infinite number of images, and some of them are focused upon, others are barely seen out of the corner of one's eye.” IfsThinkingHumansEyeHuman BeingsNumbersFocusOne DayNormalInfiniteCornersFocusedPerceiveEtcRough Book:Daido Moriyama: stray dog Source: Daido Moriyama: stray dog
