Take Photos Now, Decide What To Do With Them Later

without comments

“I really try to divorce myself from any thought of possible use of this stuff. That’s part of the discipline. My only purpose while I’m working is to try to make interesting photographs, and what to do with them is another act — a later consideration. Certainly while I’m working, I want them to be as useless as possible.”

-Garry Winogrand on the use of his photographs

I have to stop asking myself why I take pictures. Lately, it has been a roadblock for me. I just have to take photos, more photos, and a bit more then decide why afterwards.

Putting too much thought on some things kill the fun behind it.
