Today is the birthday of Ansel Easton Adams (February 20, 1902 – April 22, 1984), photographer and environmentalist. He is best known for his B&W photographs of the American West."In wisdom gathered over time I have found that every experience is a form of exploration."
— Ansel Adams
"No man has the right to dictate what other men should perceive, create or produce, but all should be encouraged to reveal themselves, their perceptions and emotions, and to build confidence in the creative spirit."
— Ansel Adams
"The whole world is, to me, very much "alive" - all the little growing things, even the rocks. I can't look at a swell bit of grass and earth, for instance, without feeling the essential life - the things going on - within them. The same goes for a mountain, or a bit of the ocean, or a magnificent piece of old wood."
— Ansel Adams
"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."
— Ansel Adams
"There is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept."
— Ansel Adams
