“In 1982 I bought the newly released Makina Plaubel 55mm fixed-lens camera. With this shift from 35mm to 6 x 7, I also changed from black and white to colour. Later that year, I started my project on New Brighton called The Last Resort. However, the first project I shot in colour was composed of urban scenes from Liverpool. This image was on the second roll of film. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the first good photo I made in this new chapter of my work.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“This photo, which was the cover of my book (based on a true story), changed the way I worked forever. After this successful book in 2012, I totally changed my methodology. From that point forward, I focused only on my self-published books. I dropped doing assignments, and simply worked on personal projects and artworks. I never plan a change. Things just happen. I think recognizing when something revolutionary is going on in your creative life is the key. One needs to realize when a turning point is right before your eyes. It’s just like photography itself. Fleeting. Carpe diem. Miss it, and you’ve missed it forever.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\""The<\/p>\n

“The sad, vibrant, tragic, beguiling country of Haiti has been key to my photography. After reading Graham Greene\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s The Comedians \u00e2\u20ac\u201d a novel set in Haiti that both fascinated and scared me \u00e2\u20ac\u201d I made my first trip in 1975. But, photographing in black and white, I soon realized that something was missing: I wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t capturing a sense of the searing light and the heat \u00e2\u20ac\u201d physical and, perhaps, metaphysical \u00e2\u20ac\u201d of this country, so different than the grey-brown reticence of New England, where I grew up. I wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t dealing with the emotional intensity of my experience of this vivid and troubled land. So, when I returned to Haiti four years later, I decided to work in color. As I wandered through the porticos of downtown Port au Prince in 1979, I remember spotting this man with a bouquet of bulrushes \u00e2\u20ac\u201d strikingly outlined against a vibrant red wall \u00e2\u20ac\u201d just as a second man, in shadow, rushed by. I took the photograph and slowly began to realize it was time to leave black and white behind.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
