#17 Staggered : Craft “I’d say that’s the essence. There are two approaches. One is the contrived approach - when you are in the studio and you set up your backgrounds and your subject and you work with lights, or when you arrange things in nature and try to make that work. The other approach - which I think is more productive in the end - is straight photography. You come across a phenomenon in nature that you can visualize as an image. Then, if you have the craft, you proceed to make it.” - Ansel Adams
