SIMON QUICK since 1963 "Thoughts where love and dreams have gone" about me
George Mallory, when asked why he wished to climb Everest, justified it with the four most important words in mountaineering, "because it is there." Why do I take pictures, 'because it is there', and it is interesting. As a child I used to go fishing as often as possible, with the aim of capturing a record fish, one that everyone would admire. I would spend hours sitting, waiting, looking; having placed myself in the right spot with the right gear, at the right time. Photography is like fishing, fifty-fifty skill and luck, being at the right place at the right time, with the right gear. Then, sitting waiting, looking, to capture the image everyone will admire - but now I am not so egotistical. I try and find the poetry in the visual - finding form, light, texture and rhythm in the imagery of nature. I try and capture what it was really like, not how clever I am at manipulating my camera settings or in post-processing images. If I could emulate just one person with my photos, I think it would be J.M.W Turner, I strive to capture drama as he did. "Let the moon shine on thee in thy solitary walk; and let the misty mountain-winds be free to blow against thee." William Wordsworth "Why climb a mountain? Better to climb a hill and look at a mountain." Sangay Dendup
The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes - Marcel Proust
