Quotes: Frank Hurley (Photographer)

 Hurley was always searching to make the perfect photograph, he would go to any length to achieve that perfection. The first quote below was written by Hurley on his Antarctic darkroom wall.

"Near enough is not good enough."

 Hurley made photographs his whole life and died at 76, this is what he said near the end.

"I've eaten raw seal meat and caviar. I've drunken melted and ice and champagne. I've lived the life that suited me took risks and did not complain. If I could live my life over again I would do it all exactly the same."
