“All aspects of photography interest me and I feel for the female body the same curiosity and the same love as for a landscape, a face or anything else which interests me. In any case, the nude is a form of landscape. There are no reasons for my photographs, nor any rules; all depends on the mood of the moment, on the mood of the model.” FeelsReasonMomentsBodyFacesFormInterestCasesDependsPhotographyModelsFemaleAspectCuriosityPhotographMoodLandscapeNo ReasonFemale BodySame Love Author:Jeanloup Sieff
“The lover of photography is fascinated both by the instant and by the past. The moment captured in the image is of near-zero duration and is located in a ever-receding then. At the same time, the spectator's now, the moment of looking at the image, has no fixed duration. It can be extended as long as fascination lasts and endlessly reiterated as long as curiosity returns.” LongMomentsLastsPastReturnLoversPhotographyCuriosityFixedInstantZeroFascinatedSpectatorsFascinationCapturedDuration Author:Peter Wollen
“I did it once, and National Geographic recruited me. I did it primarily out of curiosity. A lot of legendary photographers had worked on that campaign. Ernst Haas had done the early photography, and I knew him. There's a lore in photography about that campaign, and I was curious.” DonePhotographyCuriosityPhotographerCampaignsCuriousLegendaryNational Geographic Author:Sam Abell

“But there is more to a fine photograph than information. We are also seeking to present an image that arouses the curiosity of the viewer or that, best of all, provokes the viewer to think-to ask a question or simply to gaze in thoughtful wonder. We know that photographs inform people. We also know that photographs move people. The photograph that does both is the one we want to see and make. It is the kind of picture that makes you want to pick up your own camera again and go to work.” PeopleThinkingKnowsWantKindDoeMovingAsksWonderInformationFinePhotographyPicksCamerasCuriosityPhotographerPhotographSeekingThoughtfulProvokingViewers Author:Sam Abell
