A photograph is usually looked at — seldom looked into. – Ansel Adams
A great photograph is a full expression of what one feels about what is being photographed in the deepest sense, and is, thereby, a true expression of what one feels about life in its entirety. – Ansel Adams
There are worlds of experience beyond the world of the aggressive man, beyond history, and beyond science. The moods and qualities of nature and the revelations of great art are equally difficult to define we can grasp them only in the depths of our perceptive spirit. – Ansel Adams
Photography is more than a medium for factual communication of ideas. It is a creative art. – Ansel Adams
