30 sets of words
#TravelTuesday is here and I, Dave Williams, have this weeks instalment of wisdom for you, free of charge!
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but who are “they” and what else do “they” say? Sometimes all we need is a little inspiration, a little motivation, and a little quote. From the word of travel and photography, here are some of my favourites to put you in the right frame of mind for this sunny Tuesday before travel comes back to life. Well, it’s sunny here in the UK! Hopefully it’s sunny where you are, too!
Much love
Dave

Which is my favourite photograph? The one I’m going to take tomorrow.
Imogen Cunningham
It’s weird that photographers spend years or even a whole lifetime, trying to capture moments that added together, don’t even amount to a couple of hours
James Lalroupi Kelvom
If I could tell the story in words I wouldn’t need to lug around a camera
Lewis Hine
Great photography is about depth of feeling, not depth of field
Peter Adams
The camera is an excuse to be someplace you otherwise don’t belong. It gives me both a point of connection and a point of separation
Susan Meiselas
My life is shaped by the urgent need to wander and observe, and my camera is my passport
Steve McCurry
If you want to be a better photographer, stand in front of more interesting stuff
Jim Richardson
You can look at a picture for a week and never think of it again. You can also look at a picture for a second and think of it all your life
Joan Miro
All photographs are accurate. None of them is the truth.
Richard Avedon
You don’t take a photograph – you make it
Ansel Adams
To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them
Elliott Erwitt
What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce
Karl Lagerfeld
There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer
Ansel Adams
I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn’t photograph them
Diane Arbus
Photography has nothing to do with cameras
Lucas Gentry
The picture that you took with your camera is the imagination you want to create with reality
Scott Lorenzo
Taking pictures is like tiptoeing into the kitchen late at night and stealing Oreo cookies
Diane Arbus
It’s one thing to make a picture of what a person looks like, it’s another thing to make a portrait of who they are
Paul Caponigro
Photography for me is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures
Don McCullin
We are making photographs to understand what our lives mean to us
Ralph Hattersley
Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything
Aaron Siskind
When I have a camera in my hand, I know no fear
Alfred Eisenstaedt
Photography is the story I fail to put into words
Destin Sparks
The eye should learn to listen before it looks
Robert Frank
It’s not enough to just own a camera. Everyone owns a camera. To be a photographer, you must understand, appreciate, and harness the power you hold
Mark Denman
The context in which a photograph is seen affects the meaning the viewer draws from it
Stephen Shore
The way that light hits objects, I think, is one of the more important things that sculpture and photography share
Rashid Johnson
What do we feel when we look at a good photograph? We just want to be there, right at the exact moment that photo taken
Mehmet Murat Ildan
When a moment in front of me appears to be particularly special, whether it be by beauty or experience, I capture it. I usually find a reason to justify taking that photo – symmetry, or color or contrast – and it’s my hope that my photography sheds light onto what I see and do on a daily basis
Connor Franta
The art of photography is all about directing the attention of the viewer
Steven Pinker
It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer. You need less imagination to be a painter because you can invent things. But in photography, everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the extraordinaryOk, so that was 31, but who was counting?! I hope there was some inspiration in there for you and I hope you all have a great day!
David Bailey
Much love
