I believe the world is incomprehensibly beautiful - an endless prospect of magic and wonder.

You don't take a picture, you make a picture.

As the fisherman depends upon the rivers, lakes and seas and the farmer upon the land for his existence, so does mankind in general depend upon the beauty of the world about him for his spiritual and emotional existence.

A true photograph need not be explained, nor can it be contained in words.

Yosemite Valley, to me, is always a sunrise, a glitter of green and golden wonder in a vast edifice of stone and space.

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

I knew my destiny when I first experienced Yosemite.
