Herbert List

The pictures I took spontaneously -

with a bliss-like sensation, as if they had long inhabited my unconscious - 

were often more powerful than those I had painstakingly composed.

I grasped their magic as in passing.

마치 오래 전부터 내 의식 속에 존재했었던 것처럼 행복감으로 자연스럽게 촬영된 사진들은

내가 공들여 만든 사진들 보다 가끔은 더 강렬했다.

나는 마치 스쳐 지나가듯 그러한 마법을 붙잡았다.
