When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.

~Ansel Adams Ever since my sophomore year of high school, I have been an Ansel Adams fan. There's something about black and white photography that I think will forever steal my heart. A photograph is an instrument of love and revelation that must see beneath the surfaces and record the qualitiesof nature and humanity which live in all things.~Ansel Adams

After going on a photoshoot with my friend Calli, who was an excellent companion and gorgeous model, there must be hundreds of photographs that don't make the mark of what I want. However, Ansel Adams made me smile about that:

Twelve significant photographs in any one year is a good crop.~Ansel Adams
