“One of the things about digital cameras is that they somehow make you get lazy, and you're not thinking about limitations of equipment and how to solve those problems. With your phone, you don't really have a zoom lens, so the frame is always structured the same with things moving within the frame, so if nothing is interesting in the frame then, of course, it gets dull. But I often find myself just being lazy and standing off to the side and holding it and it's in focus and the exposure is perfect...so I was glad I showed up that day without the camera. That has somewhat been my whole career. When you show up and watch—a lot—you can get lucky and get a good moment. But you have to be there.”
