More quotes by Ernst Haas
Beware of too much taste as it leads to sterility.
Ernst Haas
You don’t take pictures, the good ones happen to you.
Ernst Haas
We all would love sometimes to be free from our own knowledge. It is even the most difficult to unlearn - as the most important problems are.
Ernst Haas
Color is joy. One does not think joy. One is carried by it.
Ernst Haas
Learn by doing or even better unlearn by doing. The opposite of what you learned.
Ernst Haas
The most important lens you have is your legs
Ernst Haas
Only a vision - that is what one must have.
Ernst Haas
A picture is the expression of an impression. If the beautiful were not in us, how would we ever recognize it?
Ernst Haas
Beware of color theories. Theories in color photography are dangerous. The plain fact that there are so many of them proves my point.
Ernst Haas
All I wanted was to connect my moods with those of Paris. Beauty pains and when it pained most, I shot.
Ernst Haas
Best wide-angle lens? Two steps backward. Look for the 'ah-ha'.
Ernst Haas
A few words about the question of whether photography is art or not: I never understood the question.
Ernst Haas
The camera only facilitates the taking. The photographer must do the giving in order to transform and transcend ordinary reality. The problem is to transform without deforming. He must gain intensity in form and content by bringing a subjective order into an objective chaos.
Ernst Haas
There are almost too many possibilities. Photography is in direct proportion with our time: multiple, faster, instant. Because it is so easy, it will be more difficult.
Ernst Haas
Through photography, both artist and scientist can find a common denominator in their search for the synthesis of modern vision in time, space and structure.
Ernst Haas
in the smallest cells are reflections of the largest. And in photography, through an interplay of scales, a whole universe within a universe can be revealed.
Ernst Haas
A picture can be an answer as well as a question but if you can't answer your question try to question your question... There can be questions without answers but no answers without questions.
Ernst Haas
Beware of direct inspiration. It leads too quickly to repetitions of what inspired you.
Ernst Haas
There is only you and your camera. The limitations in your photography are in yourself, for what we see is what we are.
Ernst Haas
I prefer to be noticed some day, first for my ideas and second for my good eye.
Ernst Haas
