"There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs." ~ Ansel Adams "
"Photograph: a picture painted by the sun without instruction in art." ~Ambrose Bierce
"Sometimes I do get to places just when God's ready to have somebody click the shutter." ~Ansel Adams
"No place is boring, if you've had a good night's sleep and have a pocket full of unexposed film." ~Robert Adams
"It's weird that photographers spend years or even a whole lifetime, trying to capture moments that added together, don't even amount to a couple of hours." ~James Lalropui Keivom
"While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see." ~Dorothea Lange
"A photograph is usually looked at - seldom looked into." ~Ansel Adams
"There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer." ~Ansel Adams
"Dodging and burning are steps to take care of mistakes God made in establishing tonal relationships." ~Ansel Adams
"When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence." ~Ansel Adams
"The departure of our boys to foreign parts with the ever-present possibility that they might never return, taught the real value of photography to every father and mother. To many a mother the photograph of her boy in his country's uniform was the one never-failing consolation." ~Louis Fabian Bachrach
"You don't take a photograph, you make it." ~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
