PLACES - Ansel Adams


Ansel Adams, left, was born in San Francisco, US in 1902, and was the Co Founder of the Group f/64 alongside Edward Weston and Immogen Cunningham. One of the groups aims being "pure or straight photography"., in essence they perfected a technique using a very small aperture to give a great depth of field, and were to strive to make photography a pure art form requiring no other tools or techniques to create their images.
Famous amongst other things for his Landscape photography, Adams most famous works include those taken in the Sierra Nevada in 1938, including the work, Clearing Winter Storm.
