“Photography is a life of learning. That's all I want from photography. I don't want the money. I don't need the fame. I don't need the admiration. I'd like all of those things, but I don't need them. Because what I get from photographing is learning. I have spent my life learning by looking through a lens.” WantNeedsFamePhotographyAdmirationLensesLife Learning Author:Rondal Partridge
“Edward [Weston] was the first artist - and I don't use the word lightly - to make a living doing art photography. Other photographers did commercial work, or worked for the government.” FirstsArtUseGovernmentArtistPhotographyPhotographerArt Photography Author:Rondal Partridge
