I heart Robert Heinecken

The idea of photography as a documentary medium did not interest Mr. Heinecken in the least. He once said:
"Many pictures turn out to be limp translations of the known world instead of vital objects which create an intrinsic world of their own. There is a vast difference between taking a picture and making a photograph."
