A photographer doesn't just copy reality, but communicates to others what he or she experiences.
In my philosophy, the meaning of life derives from the people one has known and loved. I have met my share of evil people and know what they are capable of - I was at the liberation of Dachau - but I have always held that evil is not inherent in men and women. I still believe that within a caring society, only the best people will flourish. That is the spirit that has moved me to photograph.
I don't ever mean my pictures to be depressing - I don't believe in making depressing pictures.
...to see the light. (Last words)
