"As I have practiced it, photography produces pleasure by simplicity. I see something special and show it to the camera. A picture is produced. The moment is held until someone sees it. Then it is theirs." ~Sam Abell
"I went to the woods
because
I wished to live
deliberately,
to front
only the essential
facts
of life,
and see
if I could not learn
what it had
to teach,
and not,
when I came to die,
discover that I had not
lived."
"I think that I cannot preserve my health and spirits,
unless I spend four hours a day at least -
and it is commonly more than that -
sauntering through the woods
and over the hills and fields,
absolutely free from all worldly engagements."
~Henry David Thoreau
