Ansel Adams Expression Quotations

I hope that my work will encourage self expression in others and stimulate the search for beauty and creative excitement in the great world around us.

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.

With all art expression, when something is seen, it is a vivid experience, sudden, compelling, and inevitable.

It is increasingly clear to me that my art relates more and more to a sublimation of my closeness to the natural world, it's events, light itself, and the positive it is a personal expression based on observation and reaction, that I am not able to define except in terms of the work itself.

All art is the expression of one and the same thing- the relation of the spirit of man to the spirit of other men and to the world.

A great photograph is a full expression of what one feels.
