"True humility is intelligent self respect which keeps us from thinking too highly or too meanly of ourselves. It makes us modest by reminding us how far we have come short of what we can be." ~ Ralph W. Sockman

 

"To take a photograph is to align the head, the eye and the heart. It's a way of life."~Henri Cartier - Bresson

 

"A great photograph is a full expression of what one feels about what is being photographed in the deepest sense, and is, thereby, a true expression of what one feels about life in its entirety." ~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

 

"You don't take a photograph, you make it."~Ansel Adams

 

"Landscape photography is the supreme test of the photographer - and often the supreme disappointment." ~Ansel Adams

"Dream Team"

 

I am an explorer, adventurer and discoverer. I like to conquer mountains, which gives me a feeling of peace and tranquility, and to be close or one with God's beautiful creation.... nature.

 

I like photography. Photography to me is like any other form of artwork. Painting, sculpture, novel, poetry, song, etc. You can interpret it anyway you like. As a friend would say it, it's not a "perfected art". It's a miss or hit masterpiece. It has no known boundaries and exceptions. There are no rules nor regulations. Only guidelines that will direct you to a photographers know-how.
