“My take on what happened with the moon landing was [......] they suspect [ sic ] that on impact that the cameras would be damaged because back in 1969 cameras weren't, you know, like they are today, as good. So they had a studio set up at CBS to mimic the moon landing. And sure enough the cameras broke and so they flipped, you know, the CBS studio on.

“The camera is one of the most frightening of modern weapons, particularly to people who have been in warfare, who have been bombed and shelled for at the back of a bombing run is invariably a photograph. In the back of ruined towns, and cities, and factories, there is aerial mapping, or spy mapping, usually with a camera. Therefore the camera is a feared instrument, and a man with a camera is suspected and watched wherever he goes... In the minds of most people today the camera is the forerunner of destruction, and it is suspected, and rightly so.” PeopleMenMindHas BeensRunningTodayCitiesModernWeaponsDestructionTownsCamerasInstrumentsPhotographFactoriesFrighteningWarfareRuinedSpyBombingMappingForerunners Author:John Steinbeck

“More and more are turning to photography as a medium of expression as well as communication. The leavening of aesthetic approaches continues. While it is too soon to define the characteristic of the photographic style today, one common denominator, rooted in tradition, seems in the ascendancy. The direct use of the camera for what it can do best, and that is the revelation, interpretation, and discovery of the world of man and of nature. The greatest challenge to the photographer is to express the inner significance through the outward form.” MenWorldWellsUseSeemsTodayFormCan DoChallengesCommonStyleExpressionCommunicationApproachPhotographyDiscoveryTraditionDirectCamerasPhotographerMediumsCharacteristicsRevelationsSignificanceInterpretationAestheticRootedCommon DenominatorAscendancy Author:Beaumont Newhall
