"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.
On that note, following are some Photography Quotations to read. I hope they will inspire. I have also added some amazing images for you to enjoy.

"When nothing seems to help, I go to look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before." Jacob Riis

"If there is any method in the way I take pictures. I believe it lies in this. See the subject first. Do not try to force it to be a picture of this, that or the other thing. Stand apart from it. Then something will happen. The subject will reveal itself." Bill Brandt

"The decision as to when to Photograph, the actual click of the shutter, is partly controlled from the outside by the flow of life but it also comes from the mind and the heart of the artist. The photograph is his vision of the world and expresses, however subtly, his values and convictions." Paul Strand
