More quotes by 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
Photography is a bridge between science and art. It brings to science what it needs most, the artistic sense, and to art the proof that nothing can be imagined which cannot be matched in the counterpoints of nature.
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 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
Is photography art?... The pure definition of the word 'art' alone is too vague today to break one's brain and soul about it. Let us take a little vacation from this word.
Ernst Haas
You don’t take pictures, the good ones happen to you.
Ernst Haas
We can write the new chapters in a visual language whose prose and poetry will need no translation.
Ernst Haas
You see what you think, you see what you feel, you are what you see If with the camera you can make others see it - that is photography.
Ernst Haas
Style has no formula, but it has a secret key. It is the extension of your personality.
Ernst Haas
Style has no formula, but it has a secret key. It is the extension of your personality. The summation of this indefinable net of your feeling, knowledge and experience. Take colour as a totality of relations within a framecolour is joy. One does not think joy. One is carried by it.
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
Photography is a transformation, not a reproduction.
Ernst Haas
Best wide-angle lens? Two steps backward. Look for the 'ah-ha'.
Ernst Haas
Every work of art has its necessity find out your very own. Ask yourself if you would do it if nobody would ever see it, if you would never be compensated for it, if nobody ever wanted it. If you come to a clear ‘yes’ in spite of it, then go ahead and don’t doubt it anymore.
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
The most important lens you have is your legs
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
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.
