Quotes<\/strong><\/p>\n

“What I respect, and at times envy, about painting is that it never claims to be anything other than a purely subjective vision. And we place no false expections on it in terms of its truth value. Photographs, on the other hand, are never entirely fiction or nonfiction.<\/em>” — Gregory Halpern<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Photography is serial in nature, and oftentimes a group of pictures becomes a much deeper thing than a gathering of single images.<\/em>” — Todd Hido<\/strong><\/p>\n

“ . . the photographs gain much of their power and meaning from being seen together, in groups that don\u2019t so much suggest a narrative as they do the rhythms of a family life in rural Maine and a continuing search for beauty in small things that might otherwise go unnoticed.<\/em>” — Russell Hart<\/strong> on Cig Harvey’s work<\/p>\n

I was at Big Cypress National Preserve in Florida (just northwest of the Everglades), photographing in a swamp and concentrating on the trees and moss across an open stretch of water when I looked up to see this guy just a few feet away. I backed up pretty quick. It was amazing how quietly an animal that size can move. After my heart slowed down, I shot this at 300 mm with an 80-400 lens.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
