Introducing the All About Photo Awards
« To take photographs means to
recognize - simultaneously and within a fraction of a second - both the fact
itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it
meaning. It is putting one's head, one's eye and one's heart on the same
axis. »
