Ansel Adams

Althougn this semester I didn't have any courses about photography, I still learn a lot on that and find some amazing phoyographers! Why? because I go to CityU and attend the lectures about photography with my sister. XDD

Now I want to introduce you a famous landscape photographer- Ansel Adams

 Some of his great works:





Ansel Easton Adams (February 20, 1902 – April 22, 1984) was an American photographer and environmentalist, best known for his black-and-white photographs of the American West, especially in Yosemite National Park. One of his most famous photographs was Moon and Half Dome, Yosemite National Park, California.

With Fred Archer, Adams developed the Zone System as a way to determine proper exposure and adjust the contrast of the final print. The resulting clarity and depth characterized his photographs and the work of those to whom he taught the system. Adams primarily used large-format cameras, despite their size, weight, setup time, and film cost, because their high resolution helped ensure sharpness in his images.
