Quote

For me the future of the image is going to be in electronic form... You will see perfectly beautiful images on an electronic screen. And Id say that would be very handsome. They would be almost as close as the best reproductions.

More quotes by Ansel Adams

Image
Impression is not enough. Design, style, technique - these, too, are not enough. Art must reach further than impression or self-revelation .
Ansel Adams
Image
One of the most important pieces of equipment, for the photographer who really wants to improve, is a great big wastepaper basket.
Ansel Adams
Image
We all know the tragedy of the dustbowls, the cruel unforgivable erosions of the soil, the depletion of fish or game, and the shrinking of the noble forests. And we know that such catastrophes shrivel the spirit of the people... The wilderness is pushed back, man is everywhere. Solitude, so vital to the individual man, is almost nowhere.
Ansel Adams
Image
Art is both the taking and giving of beauty, the turning out to the light of the inner folds of the awareness of the spirit.

You don't take a picture, you make a picture.

Ansel Adams
Image
Let us leave a splendid legacy for our children...let us turn to them and say, this you inherit: guard it well, for it is far more precious than money...and once destroyed, nature's beauty cannot be repurchased at any price.
Ansel Adams
Image
A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed.
Ansel Adams
Image
We either have wild places or we don't. We admit the spiritual-emotional validity of wild, beautiful places or we don't. We have a philosophy of simplicity of experience in these wild places or we don't. We admit an almost religious devotion to the clean exposition of the wild, natural earth or we don't.

The camera cannot, but the photographer can.
Ansel Adams
Image
If what I see in my mind excites me, there is a good chance it will make a good photograph.

Bad weather makes for good photography.

I’m interested in something which is built up from within, rather than just extracted from without.
Ansel Adams
Image
There is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept.
Ansel Adams
Image
I never know in advance what I will photograph,...I Go Out into the World and Hope I Will come across something that Imperatively interests me. I Am Addicted to the Found object. I have No doubt that I Will Continue to make Photographs till my last Breath.

Life is your art. An open, aware heart is your camera. A oneness with your world is your film. Your bright eyes and easy smile is your museum.

The artist and the photographer seek the mysteries and the adventure of experience in nature.
