Magnum: Advice for young photographers – part 2

You must have something to say. You must be brutally honest with yourself about this. Think about history, politics, science, literature, music, film, and anthropology. What effect does one discipline have over another? What makes “man” tick? Today, with everyone being able to easily make technically perfect photographs with a cell phone, you need to be an “author”. It is all about authorship, authorship and authorship.

I have the opportunity to meet David Alan Harvey and his words are completely true.
He is very passionate and most of all, very young besides his age.

Great words to follow, if passion is driving moment by moment, you’re bound to have some successes. Thanks Rob!

Again, Harvey’s words remind us there’s more to a photograph than digits, color, and focus.
