Ansel Adams Post 5

Ansel Adams was an innovator of his time. The way he saw the world and knowledge of the camera and the dark room. Adams was a very well educated man when it came to the development of photography.

This image was a beautiful mistake one may say. He didn't have his light meter when he was taking this shot and he was able to still capture such an wonderful shot. At this time you couldn't see what you were shooting so for him to get this and development the negative just right so that all the shadows and the lights show just enough perfect light for the picture to be just perfect.

I love this image just beautiful. I love mountains and the snow caps that he captured here and the lovely river that runs through the image. You definitely can read the image from top left to bottom right it has a very nice flow to it. I just can't get over some of these shots that he has taken and to think that it's all about development as well. How long you let the image burn into the paper and how long you left it in certain chemicals that bring out the blacks and whites. He was a very talented man and I believe he was a very big impact on how photography is today.
