Photography is the only language that can be understood anywhere in the world.
My portraits are more about me than they are about the people I photograph.
There's nothing more extraordinary than reality.
The things you don’t show can say more than the things that are made visible.
From an interview with Erwin at: https://talking-pictures.net.au/2020/12/12/erwin-olaf-a-hesitant-beauty/
You have to be ready for luck.
If you do see the competior in the viewfiender you've missed the picture.
If the ball isn't in the picture you haven't got a picture.
I am a perfectionist. When I take a picture...it's gotta be good
I like your motto: One picture is worth 1,000 denials.

One picture is worth a thousand words.
