Han har sagt att han kunde vara helt nöjd med sin fotografi, även om hans enda motiv var ljuset. (sv)

In den letzten Jahren veröffentlichte Sam Abell noch weitere 5 Bücher zu den Themengebieten wie Bürgerkrieg, Gärten, über den Westen der USA, über Irland und die Westküste von Australien. Abell benutzt häufig die Totale mit einem Weitwinkelobjektiv. Seine Bilder zeigen den Menschen in seiner Umwelt und sein Umgang mit ihr. Ein Interessensgebiet ist der sozialkritische Blick, dies besonders mit eindrücklichen Porträt Aufnahmen. Eine herausragende Arbeit ist eine Reportage über die Inselgruppe „Neu Hybriden“, entstanden 1973. (de)
