“Yosemite Valley, to me, is always a sunrise, a glitter of green and golden wonder in a vast edifice of stone and space. I know of no sculpture, painting or music that exceeds the compelling spiritual command of the soaring shape of granite cliff and dome, of patina of light on rock and forest, and of the thunder and whispering of the falling, flowing waters. At first the colossal aspect may dominate; then we perceive and respond to the delicate and persuasive complex of nature.” KnowsFirstsMayLightSpiritualFallWaterSpaceWonderRocksPaintingShapesAspectStonesGreenComplexesForestsCommandGoldenPerceiveValleysDelicateCompellingSunriseSoarSculptureThunderCliffsExceedWhisperingGlitterPersuasiveColossalEdificeDomesGraniteYosemiteFlowing Water Author:Ansel Adams

If everyone in the world saw different colors from different eyes there might be a great many new colors still to be invented.” IfsWorldStillsDifferentMightEyeNightLeftWonderSawsColorBlueGreenGoldenGreat MenShadeYellowGreyOrangeDaylightDifferent ColorsShades Of Blue Book:Novels and Stories: The Lottery, The Haunting of Hill House, We Have Always Lived in the Castle, Other Stories and Sketches Source: Novels and Stories: The Lottery, The Haunting of Hill House, We Have Always Lived in the Castle, Other Stories and Sketches
