Steve McCurry is a renowned American photojournalist best known for his evocative and powerful images that capture the human condition around the world. Here are some quotes attributed to him:
1. ”Most of my images are grounded in people. I look for the unguarded moment, the essential soul peeking out, experience etched on a person’s face.”
2. ”What I find is that the simpler the picture, the more complex it becomes. The closer you get to something—the face of a woman, a child—the more mysterious it is.”
3. ”I think life is too short not to be doing something which you really believe in.”
4. ”My life is shaped by the urgent need to wander and observe, and my camera is my passport.”
5. ”There are moments when everything is going right, and there are moments when nothing goes right. Both are fantastic opportunities to learn.”
6. ”Photography for me is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures.”
7. ”When you photograph people in color, you photograph their clothes. But when you photograph people in black and white, you photograph their souls!”
8. ”Photography is still a very new medium and everything must be tried and dare.”
9. ”The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.”
These quotes encapsulate McCurry’s philosophy on photography, travel, and the human experience, reflecting his passion for capturing the essence of humanity in his work.
