Author: Wright, Frank Lloyd

The creative photographer is an architect with a camera. While working methods differ, both have the same basic interest in line, form and texture. The two work towards a common goal, that of creating the harmonious pattern which is considered good composition or design.
The architect builds into space and his work is three-dimensional; he is concerned not only with the geometric symmetry of his design but its functional qualities as well. An architectural photographer..."

Author: Wright, Frank Lloyd
Description: "Frank Lloyd Wright talks about photography. A great modern architect tells photo-journalists what he thinks the camera can do - and what it can't...
