I might have picked it up originally from [Henri-]Cartier [Bresson], who was a fanatic of never cropping. You know, I had a meeting with him, one in particular, it was at this party in Lyon. Big event, you know. I was seated with him and a couple of women.

And I didn\u2019t say anything back. What can one say? I mean, I felt like saying I\u2019ve wasted a lot of time. As this happened, I\u2019ll tell you, I noticed across the room this really beautiful young lady, who turned out to be crazy. So I just got up, left the table, introduced myself, and I spent the rest of the evening talking to her, and she never told me color was bullshit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From patriksandberg.com: Drew Barrymore:\u00a0How do you feel about cropping?
