“I believe the world is incomprehensibly beautiful – an endless prospect of magic and wonder.”
“In my mind’s eye, I visualize how a particular… sight and feeling will appear on a print. If it excites me, there is a good chance it will make a good photograph. It is an intuitive sense, an ability that comes from a lot of practice.”
“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.”
“Photography, as a powerful medium of expression and communications, offers an infinite variety of perception, interpretation and execution.”
“Myths and creeds are heroic struggles to comprehend the truth in the world.”
“Millions of men have lived to fight, build palaces and boundaries, shape destinies and societies; but the compelling force of all times has been the force of originality and creation profoundly affecting the roots of human spirit.”
In 1942 Ansel Adams took his photo ‘The Tetons and the Snake River’
In 2009 my dad went on a climbing trip to Wyoming and climbed Grand Teton. After climbing he camped at different locations throughout the park and decided to find the spot where Ansel Adam’s had taken his iconic photo. This is the photo he took from where he feels Ansel stood.
