“I had always made pictures as I thought I saw the world, focusing on what lay in front, but this is not how one sees the world. It only frames the centre and cuts off the lateral vision, which lies unfocused. Now I found that I could turn my eye to the adjacent field of vision, seeing another focus, an extension which I added to the original. Instead of stopping at two focuses, I looked further to the side, adding another and yet another.” WorldMadeTwoEyeLyingTurnsFoundSidesVisionSawsFocusCuttingSeeingFrontsFieldsOriginalsLaysCentreExtensionsStopping Author:Joseph Plaskett
“Many oriental cultures make a distinction between two ways of looking - 'hard eyes' and 'soft eyes'. When we look with hard eyes, we see specific details with sharp focus, but we don't see the relationships between different details as well. When we look with soft eyes we see the relationships between everything in our field of vision, but with this softer focus, we don't see all the details as clearly. It's possible to look in two ways at once.” WayWellsLooksTwoDifferentHardEyeCultureVisionFocusFieldsPhotographerDetailsDistinctionTwo Ways Author:John Paul Caponigro
“I think just what my parents instilled in me was hard work and being able to always go out there and focus and be 100%. I took that work ethic into the NFL and everyday I always gave 100% and never wanted anything to be handed to me. I wanted to earn it.

“What, then, is the effect of pesticides? Pesticides have created a legacy of pain, and misery, and death for farm workers and consumers alike. The crop which poses the greatest danger, and the focus of our struggle, is the table grape crop. These pesticides soak the fields. Drift with the wind, pollute the water, and are eaten by unwitting consumers. These poisons are designed to kill, and pose a very real threat to consumers and farm workers alike.” RealPainWaterStruggleFocusEffectsDangerFieldsWindTablesThreatMiseryEnvironmentalWorkersConsumersLegacyPoisonFarmsPollutionCropsGrapesPesticides Book:An Organizer's Tale: Speeches Source: An Organizer's Tale: Speeches
“When I started using the extreme short depth of field and single point of focus, I was trying to replicate my changing eyesight. We have binocular vision; one eye perceives space from the other.

“Environmentally, business in America in 1970 was very similar to business in China today. Even if a CEO wanted to be a responsible corporate citizen, he (and they were all "he's" then) simply couldn't invest a billion dollars in pollution controls to produce a product that was indistinguishable from those of his competitors. His products would be priced out of the market. Passing laws that created a clean, level playing field for whole industries had to be a core focus of the 1970s.” IfsWholeWould BeTodayWantedAmericaLawLevelsFocusFieldsProduceProductsIndustryCitizensResponsibleDollarsCleanChinaBillionsCorePassingPassingsCorporatePollutionCeoCompetitorsPlaying FieldsLevel Playing FieldPollution ControlPassing Laws Author:Denis Hayes
