Vol.5 Ansel Adams said...(Ansel Easton Adams, 1902 - 1984, an american photographer. For his images, he developed the zone system, a way to determine proper exposure and adjust the contrast of the final print. The resulting clarity and depth characterized his photographs. Although his large-format view cameras were difficult to use because of their size, weight, setup time, and film cost, their high resolution ensured sharpness in his images.)
Twelve significant photograps in any one year is a good crop.
There is nothing worse than a brilliant image of a fuzzy concept.
There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer.
There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs.
Every man´s work is always a portrait of himself.
When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silent.
I am always surprised when I see several cameras, a gaggle on lenses, filters, meters, et cetera, rattling around in a soft bag with a complement of refuse and dust. Sometimes the professional is the worst offender!
The only things in my life that compatibly exist with this grand universe are the creative works of the human spirit.
A photograph is not an accident – it is a concept.
I can look at a fine art photograph and sometimes I can hear music.
A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed.
I can't verbalize the internal meaning of pictures whatsoever. Some of my friends can at very mystical levels, but I prefer to say that, if I feel something strongly, I would make a photograph, that would be the equivalent of what I saw and felt.
You don't take a photograph, you make it.
My last word s that it all depends on what you visualize.
And something very special in the end:
WE DON'T MAKE A PHOTOGRAPH JUST WITH A CAMERA,
WE BRING TO THE ACT OF PHOTOGRAPHY ALL THE BOOKS WE HAVE READ,
THE MOVIES WE HAVE SEEN,
THE MUSIC WE HAVE HEARD,
THE PEOPLE WE HAVE LOVED.
