The camera captures an instant in time. It accomplishes this better than any other artistic expression… the ultimate form of impressionism. As such, an immediate reaction to the subject is better than a calculated composition. To capture this moment as it happens is the ultimate challenge for the photographer-artist.

"There is, of a truth, no art in carrying about and manipulating an automatic view-taker, any more than there is science in heaping specimens higgledy-piggledy in a cabinet. But when certain means are carefully and deftly employed to the attainment of a given end, there is certainly art, and art of a high order, if these means are used with intelligence and taste."
The Story of Photography, 1898
