It is difficult
to get the news from poems
yet men die miserably every day
for lack
of what is found there.

—William Carlos Williams


Landscape pictures can offer us, I think, three veritiesÑgeography, autobiography, and metaphor.
Geography is, if taken alone, sometimes boring, autobiography is frequently trivial, and metaphor
can be dubious. But taken together, as in the best work of people like Alfred Stieglitz and Edward
Weston, the three kinds of information strengthen each other and reinforce what we all work to
keep intactÑan affection for life.

Robert Adams, Beauty in Photography
