\n“Photography is more than a medium for factual communication of ideas. It is a creative art.” – Ansel Adams

\n“Dodging and burning are steps to take care of mistakes God made in establishing tonal relationships.” – Ansel Adams
\n“A true photograph need not be explained, nor can it be contained in words.” – Ansel Adam
\n“When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. \u00a0When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.” – Ansel Adams
