First off let me tell you who Ansel Adams is. A. Adams is a photographer born and raised in San Francisco. He lived from February 20, 1902 to April 22, 1984. Ansel has won the Hasselblad award, as well as the Presidential Medal of Freedom. He studied at Harvard University as well as Yale. I do believe he taught himself to become a photographer. His art is really unique, for he does not take portraits. A. Adams takes photos of landscapes, that are all black and white, no color. I feel his art shows the beauty in objects, that color does not influence beauty. Those objects specifically being landscapes. While most artists focus on color in their art, A. Adams did not. He embraced what others won't, he was not afraid to go out of what is preferred.
