There is a kind of beauty in imperfection.
Conrad Hall Quotes
With today's fast films, you can light the way your eye sees the scene. You can abuse the film and create subtleties in contrast with light and exposure, diffusion and filters. That's what makes it an art.

Conrad Lafcadio Hall was born inĀ Papeete, Tahiti, French Polynesia. He was an American cinematographer. For his work he garnered a number of awards, including three Academy Awards and BAFTA Awards. In 2003, Hall was judged to be one of history's ten most influential cinematographers in a survey of the members of the International Cinematographers Guild. He worked on documentaries, in television and minor films, and as a studio camera operator before moving up to cinematographer in major studio films in the mid-1960s. The thirty-year gap between his first two Oscars is a record for this award.
