I can look at a fine art photograph and sometimes I can hear music.

Ansel Adams 180 quotes

It is increasingly clear to me...

It is increasingly clear to me that my art relates more and more to a sublimation of my closeness to the natural world, it's events, light itself, and the positive it is a personal expression based on observation and reaction, that I am not able to define except in terms of the work itself.

Ansel Adams 180 quotes

I can't verbalize the internal...

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.

Ansel Adams 180 quotes

The piano has eighty-eight key...

The piano has eighty-eight keys, and you have to be able to play all of them. And the range of white to black is analogous to the eighty-eight keys and you have to be able to play all eighty-eight keys in that palette from white to black.

Ansel Adams 180 quotes

All I can do in my writing is ...

All I can do in my writing is to stimulate a certain amount of thought, clarify some technical facts and date my work. But when I preach sharpness, brilliancy, scale, etc., I am just mouthing words, because no words can really describe those terms and qualities it takes the actual print to say, 'here it is.

Ansel Adams 180 quotes

The (photographic) negative is...

The (photographic) negative is the equivalent of the composers score and the print is the equivalent of the conductors performance.

It is all very beautiful and magical here - a quality which cannot be described. You have to live it and breathe it, let the sun bake into you.

Today, we must realize that nature is revealed in the simplest meadow, wood lot, marsh, stream, or tidepool, as well as in the remote grandeur of our parks and wilderness areas.

Ansel Adams 180 quotes

I respect everything in change...

I respect everything in change and the solemn beauty of life and death... and therefore, while man is amidst the immense beauty of objective bodies, he must possess the capacity of self-perfection and must observe and represent his world with full confidence.

Ansel Adams 180 quotes

Let us leave a splendid legacy...

Let us leave a splendid legacy for our children...let us turn to them and say, this you inherit: guard it well, for it is far more precious than money...and once destroyed, nature's beauty cannot be repurchased at any price.

Ansel Adams 180 quotes

I know that I am one with beauty and that my comrades are one. Let our souls be mountains, Let our spirits be stars, Let our hearts be worlds.

Ansel Adams 180 quotes

I know the importance of highly trained awareness of the 'momentЂќ and the immediate and intuitive response of the photographer. It should be obvious to all that photographers whose images possess character and quality have attained them only by continued practice and total dedication to the medium.

Life is your art. An open, aware heart is your camera. A oneness with your world is your film. Your bright eyes and easy smile is your museum.

It is easy to take a photograph, but it is harder to make a masterpiece in photography than in any other art medium.

Ansel Adams 180 quotes

I believe in beauty. I believe in stones and water, air and soil, people and their future and their fate.
