Ansel Adams Camera Quotations

In a strict sense photography can never be abstract, for the camera is incapable of synthetic integration.

The [35mm] camera is for life and for people, the swift and intense moments of life.

The camera cannot, but the photographer can.

It is the photographer, not the camera, that is the instrument.

Sometimes I do get to places just when God's ready to have somebody click the shutter.

You don't make a photograph just with a camera

There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs.
