00:03 I enjoy driving.
00:04 My parents had a car, and we had four kids,
00:09 and we all fit in there.
00:10 And I have distinct memories of looking up
00:13 and I saw the trees coming past.
00:15 We're here in the Dolomites.
00:19 We were here at four o'clock, I think.
00:21 When it was really dark,
00:24 and but beautiful to see the light coming up,
00:26 and then gradually we got into the light.
00:28 I think that was correct for the picture.
00:30 The idea was to make the car feel like
00:33 it's a foreign body in the forest,
00:35 like an animal raring to go,
00:38 balancing out the beauty of the forest
00:39 with the beauty of the car.
00:41 I'm very influenced by the documentary kind of photography.
00:47 I kind of arrange things and then let them loose.
00:51 Technique is low on my list.
00:54 I can't do lighting, so I don't do lighting.
00:57 (crowd cheering)
01:00 This sort of education I had was photographing musicians
01:03 visiting Amsterdam, and you would get
01:05 one or two minutes to photograph them.
01:07 I still like that process of doing something fast.
01:10 I get bored when it takes too long.
01:14 I started photography in '72.
01:16 By the time I moved to England,
01:17 I took pictures that I felt were really great,
01:20 like the Bowie picture and the Beefheart picture,
01:22 and enjoyed the vision of it.
01:26 I think my work in the beginning was very brave,
01:30 'cause nobody liked it.
01:31 I look at shapes and forms and that kind of beauty.
01:36 I like to do things that are outside the field
01:39 that people think I work in.
01:40 People say, "Well, you have your style,"
01:42 and I always think style is defined
01:44 by your inability to do it any other way.
01:47 Lamborghini is a beautiful, sophisticated,
01:52 and chic word, I think.
01:53 I mean, the Ravalzo is quite a piece of car making,
01:56 and it moves damn fast.
01:58 I don't work in a 95 job, so I do my thing.
02:02 I'm happy that a lot of people seem to like it,
02:04 but I would still do it if that was not the case.
02:07 (whooshing)
02:10 you
