 Time could truly be made to stand still. Texture could be retained despite violent movement. (On the development of high-speed strobes) 
 After a decade I became fed up with the strobe because I had done almost everything once and I didn’t want to repeat myself. 
 My generation came at a time when photography was advancing by leaps and bounds, creating the impulse to experiment and seek new approaches.
