Spending a day with Cartier-Bresson and NOT photographing him.

Eric Meola reveals what’s so special about photography – twice!

Here’s an excerpt of our extended conversation.

EM
I was almost literally hit by a bolt of lightning when I saw a print come up in the developer. My dad was a doctor, and one of his patients was an engineer whose hobby was photography. I was 12 years old at the time, and my father asked him to teach me about photography. My own hobby was “magic”- magic tricks. As soon as I saw the grays and blacks materialize under red light, I made an immediate, intense association and realized instantly that I wanted to be a photographer.

JPC
So is photography still a magic trick for you today?

EM
Well, it’s still magic…of course it is…and even more so. The ability to make our own archival prints and have completely control over the color is magic…and seeing new talent emerge is magic…and having more time now to shoot my own images is magic. We make the magic, or we don’t. And right now I’m having more fun than I’ve ever had, working on my own projects and books.

First, read my conversation with Eric Meola here.

Second, read Eric’s answers to 20 questions (more or less) here.

What’s the most useful photographic mantra?
Never stop looking.

What’s the thing you most hope to accomplish?
Making someone else excited about photography.

If you had to do it all over again, what would you change?
I’d shoot a lot more – a LOT more.
