“There are no rules for good photographs,

there are only good photographs.”

~ Ansel Adams~

“Press photographers hate tripods, sport photographers prefer to work with monopods – but naturphotography isn’t possible without a tripod. Snapshooting works without, but not photographing” – Fritz Pölking

"Photographers are, in a sense, composers and the negatives are their scores. ...In the electronic age, I am sure that scanning techniques will be developed to achieve prints of extraordinary subtlety from the original negative scores. If I could return in twenty years or so I would hope to see astounding interpretations of my most expressive images. It is true no one could print my negatives as I did, but they might well get more out of them by electronic means. Image quality is not the product of a machine, but of the person who directs the machine, and there are no limits to imagination and expression." - Ansel Adams

“A camera is just a piece of hardware with no mind, no soul, no artistry, just an object that records a situation, unbiased and emotionless.

I’m not interested in the vision of a piece of hardware, I’m only interested in the vision of the artist with a mind and soul, who will alter the image to his reality.

It’s the difference between photography and art” by Joel Tjintjelaar

I'm not a photographer......
