Patti suggests we show a few of our favorite photograph from 2019. I also decided to share again a few of my favorite quotes plus my all time favorite from Ansel Adams.
“You don’t make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.” – Ansel Adams
“Photography for me is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures.” – Don McCullin
“To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.” – Elliott Erwitt
“I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn’t photograph them.” – Diane Arbus
“Taking pictures is like tiptoeing into the kitchen late at night and stealing Oreo cookies.” – Diane Arbus
“Beauty can be seen in all things, seeing and composing the beauty is what separates the snapshot from the photograph.” – Matt Hardy
“You can look at a picture for a week and never think of it again. You can also look at a picture for a second and think of it all your life.” – unknown
“There’s something strange and powerful about black-and-white imagery.” – Stefan Kanfer
“To see in color is a delight for the eye but to see in black and white is a delight for the soul” – Andri Cauldwell
If you have a moment, please let me know if one of these is your favorite also. 😊
Wishing everyone a wonderful Year in 2020; good health, inner peace and comfort and safe travels where ever you go!
