Ansel Adams was a famous American photographer who documented the true beauty of the United States in black and white. He is most famous for his work in Yosemite National Park. His work has been exhibited in many museums across the world and continues to be popular even today.
ReplyDeleteAnsel Adams was born in 1902 to a family of photographers. When he was 12, his father gave him a camera because he showed an interest in photography at such a young age. After graduating from high school, he attended college and then worked as a private tutor until 1929 when he opened his own portrait studio with photographic equipment that had been left by his late father-in-law. It was during this time that Adams started photographing nature which led to him being one of the founding members of Group f/64.
