Advice for young photographers

Magnum photographers were asked what there advice was for young photographers. This is great. And very inspirational.

Larry Towell said: "Be yourself. Look outside of yourself."

Eli Reed said: "Stop talking theory when a camera is in their your and do not over-think the image. Lose the ego and let the photograph find you...."

David Hurn said: "Don't become a photographer unless its what you "have" to do. It can't be the easy option. if you become a photographer you will do a lot of walking so buy good shoes."
