ANSEL ADAMS

Ansel Easton Adams (February 20, 1902 - April 22, 1984) was an American photographer, best known for his black and white photographs of California's Yosemite Valley.

Adams also authored numerous books about photography, including his trilogy of technical instruction manuals (The Camera, The Negative and The Print); co-founded Group f/64 along with other masters like Edward Weston, Willard Van Dyke, and Imogen Cunningham; and created, with Fred Archer, the zone system. The zone system is a technique which allows photographers to translate the light they see into specific densities on negatives and paper, thus giving them better control over finished photographs. Adams also pioneered the idea of visualization (which he often called 'previsualization', though he later acknowledged that term to be a redundancy) of the finished print based upon the measured light values in the scene being photographed.

I was first introduced to Ansel Adams when I read the book, "Born Confused" by Tanuja Desai Hidier. It was when I started to look at his pictures that I fell in love with his photos. I'm trying to learn how to capture such beauty through a lens with my cheapy little digital camera.
