“You cannot separate the composition from the life of the moment. It is all one thing, to be decided in a split second while you're living through it.” MomentsOne ThingDecidedSplitsComposition Author:Edwin Land
“Occasionally there is a moment in a person's life when he takes a great stride forward in wisdom, humility, or disillusionment. For a split second he comes into a kind of cosmic understanding. For a trembling breath of time he knows all there is to know. He is loaned the gift the poet yearned for - seeing himself as others see him.” KnowsKindPersonsMomentsWisdomUnderstandingSeeingHumilityPoetBreathsCosmicSplitsTremblingStrideDisillusionment Author:Betty Smith
“We all experience it. Those moments when we gasp and say, Oh, look at that. Maybe it's nothing more than the way a shadow glides across a face, but in that split second, when you realize something truly remarkable is happening and disappearing right in front of you, if you can pass a camera before your eye, you'll tear a piece of time out of the whole, and in a breath, rescue it and give it new meaning.” IfsWayGivingLooksWholeMomentsEyeFacesRealizingPiecesFrontsTearsHappeningsShadowBreathsCamerasPhotographerDisappearRemarkableSplitsRescue Author:Joel Meyerowitz
