- Q&A with photographer David Nevala:
Q: How many pictures do you shoot a week? A month? A year?
A: Depends on client assignments. Probably 1,000 images a week. Using a calculator, I guess that figures to 4,000 a month and about 48,000 a year. That's a bit frightening in those terms.

- Audio interview with photographer Joachim Ladefoged from the VII Photo Agency:
"I couldn't do the things all the kids my age could do. Go to play soccer, go to the discos, have fun, drink beers, go crazy. I was there struggling with my disease. But then I got this camera and I could take part a little bit in their life by shooting what they were doing. ... It was a way for me to move on with my life."
