Ansel Adams is an American photographer that is famous for taking beautiful black and white photos. He recommends that his pictures are from National Parks, such as Yosemite National Park. He was born on February 20, 1902 in San Francisco. He is the only son of Olive and Charles Adams. In his early childhood he was very interested in music such as playing the piano but when he got older he was interested in photography.
Ansel Adams was known as an environmental hero and a symbol of the American West. Ansel Adams was born four years before the great earthquake of 1906. A after shock of the earthquake threw him to the ground and broke his nose and scarring him for life. He was inspired to be a black and white photographer by growing up playing in the sand dunes and enjoying nature.
When he was 17 years old he took a job as a custodian at the Sierra Club where his first photographs were posted on the Sierra Club bulletin. Soon he became the club's official photographer then made it all the way up to the assistant manager.

I love these colors! This is just a normal ocean but it looks like it might be a waterfall. I also really like how they included the undersea. |
