Ansel Adams

This is a picture taken of Fern Spring, Yosemite Valley in 1961. This photo is a very interesting one in my opinion. The texture of the water seems different, adding more of a unique feel to the picture. The picture itself is very focused and u can see a lot of detail, both from the water and the rocks.

Adams education was not an easy one for him. He went to Public school, but had to go to a Private school due to possible dyslexia, hyper activeness, and an "earthquaked" nose. These made it difficult for him to attend Public schooling. Before Photography, Adams was a professional musician, mainly a pianist. Adams Monolith picture was taken in 1927. Adams was a very popular person in the photography community, having been with Sierra Club and knowing many well known people in the photography community. In 1928, Adams got married to Virginia Best and they had two children. He was a very shy person as a child but he was a party person as an adult.

Panorama Findings

 I liked the way this Panorama curves like that in the middle of the picture. Also i like how the sides are much closer, while the middle is farther away.

I liked this one simply because it is a common type of photo. It's not a hard photo to find, but its also made unique with the panoramic setting of the camera.

National Geographic Post


 

  This photo has a very unique coloring to it. I like how, at certain spots, the lightning bolt actually has a red color to it. This photo was taken while there was also as clouds from Rabaul volcano in Papua New Guinea. I think the fact that this was taken at that time makes it even more unique. I also like how it isn't jut a normal bolt of lightning, but is random, sporadic. I also think this would be a scary thing to see, especially with the volcano emitting ash.
