More quotes by Ansel Adams
It is easy to take a photograph, but it is harder to make a masterpiece in photography than in any other art medium.
Ansel Adams
Black and white photography is truly quite a 'departure from reality', and the transition from one aspect of visual magic to another was not as complete as many imagine.
Ansel Adams
The photo-journalist and the photo-poet are both important. The problem is to separate the major objectives of the various groups and not to attribute qualities and intentions where they do not belong.
Ansel Adams
In a strict sense photography can never be abstract, for the camera is incapable of synthetic integration.
Ansel Adams
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.
Ansel Adams
Bad weather makes for good photography.
Ansel Adams
Both the grand and the intimate aspects of nature can be revealed in the expressive photograph. Both can stir enduring affirmations and discoveries, and can surely help the spectator in his search for identification with the vast world of natural beauty and wonder surrounding him.
Ansel Adams
I have often had a retrospective vision where everything in my past life seems to fall with significance into logical sequence.
Ansel Adams
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
You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.
Ansel Adams
Millions of men have lived to fight, build palaces and boundaries, shape destinies and societies but the compelling force of all times has been the force of originality and creation profoundly affecting the roots of human spirit.
Ansel Adams
My last word s that it all depends on what you visualize.
Ansel Adams
Dodging and burning are steps to take care of mistakes God made in establishing tonal relationships.
Ansel Adams
How high your awareness level is determines how much meaning you get from your world. Photography can teach you to improve your awareness level.
Ansel Adams
We must remember that a photograph can hold just as much as we put into it, and no one has ever approached the full possibilities of the medium.
Ansel Adams
In wisdom gathered over time I have found that every experience is a form of exploration.
Ansel Adams
I don't know anybody who needs a critic to find out what art is.
Ansel Adams
I think we can not categorize. Things do not fit into a mold.
Ansel Adams
If what I see in my mind excites me, there is a good chance it will make a good photograph.
Ansel Adams
A true photograph need not be explained, nor can it be contained in words.
