“A Light exists in Spring Not present on the Year At any other period - When March is scarcely here A Color stands abroad On Solitary Fields That Science cannot overtake But Human Nature feels.

“Photography is much more about elimination than inclusion. The images we make with a lens typically eliminate ninety percent of our field of view and everything that is out of our field of view. The shutter slices time, eliminating all moments before and after it opens and closes. Three dimensions are reduced to two. And in some cases color is removed. How can we call these kinds of artifacts unaltered?” KindTwoMomentsThreeViewsCasesFieldsColorPhotographyPercentDimensionsInclusionLensesNinetyEliminationEliminatingArtifactsShuttersBefore And AfterThree Dimensions Author:John Paul Caponigro
“Nature, at all events, humanly speaking, is manifestly very fond of color; for she has made nothing without it. Her skies are blue; her fields, green; her waters vary with her skies; her animals, vegetables, minerals, are all colored.

“Science, freedom, beauty, adventure: what more could you ask of life? Aviation combined all the elements I loved. There was science in each curve of an airfoil, in each angle between strut and wire, in the gap of a spark plug or the color of the exhaust flame. There was freedom in the unlimited horizon, on the open fields where one landed. A pilot was surrounded by beauty of earth and sky. He brushed treetops with the birds, leapt valleys and rivers, explored the cloud canyons he had gazed at as a child. Adventure lay in each puff of wind.” ChildrenEarthAsksSkyFieldsColorAdventureWindElementsBirdRiversLaysCloudsFlyingFlightFlamesAviationGapsHorizonValleysSparksPilotsAngleUnlimitedCurvesWirePlugsGreat AviationCanyonsPuffAviatorEarth And SkyOpen FieldsTreetops Author:Charles Lindbergh

“Any artist, in any field, wants to press deeper, to discover further. Image and sound play are among the strongest colors available to poetry's palette. For a long time, I've wanted to invite in more strangeness, more freedom of imagination. Yet music, seeing, and meaning are also cohering disciplines. They can be stretched, and that is part of poetry's helium pleasure. But not to the point of breaking.” WantLongPlayWantedArtistSoundImaginationPleasureSeeingFieldsColorDisciplineLong TimePressesAvailableDeeperStrongestInvitesStrangenessPaletteHelium Author:Jane Hirshfield

“Ever since I was a child I've had a passion for colors and a sixth sense and known how to use it. I started in fashion, but I got side-tracked by psychology and its color connection.

“Everything comes from one thing, everything comes from the Spirit. Jazz would not exist had it not been for gospel music, the blues would not exist had it not been for spiritual blues, which goes back to slave songs our fore fathers were singing while they were out in the field.
