"In PORTRAITS I look for the unguarded moment, the essential soul peeking out, experience etched on a person's face... When I find the right person or subject, I may come back once or twice, or half a dozen times, always waiting for that right moment.
Unlike the writer, once I pack my bags, there is no chance for another draft - either I have the shot or I don't. This is what drives and haunts the professional photographer, the gnawing sense that 'this is it' ".
Steve McCurry
