Photography is more than a medium for factual communication of ideas. It is a creative art.

Ansel Adams

I have often thought that if photography were difficult in the true sense of the term — meaning that the creation of a simple photograph would entail as much time and effort as the production of a good watercolor or etching — there would be a vast improvement in total output. The sheer ease with which we can produce a superficial image often leads to creative disaster.

Ansel Adams

The only things in my life that compatibly exist with this grand universe are the creative works of the human spirit.
