He was born on February 20, 1902 and died on April 22, 1984.
He was born in San Francisco, CA and died in Monterey, CA.
He went to a private schools and was even home schooled, because of his bad behavior. He also attended Harvard University.
He created a portfolio that became successful, earning him nearly $3,900, and which made him receive commercial assignments to photograph the wealthy who bought his portfolio. He wasn't so fond of his day job, which was commercial work, because he felt it was "very restraining" to his creative work.
Adams's first book was published by Mary Hunter Austin. He was able to put his first solo museum exhibition at the Smithsonia Institution. 60 prints that were taken in the High Sierra.
I chose this picture because I like the angle it was taken and the scene itself of this rose is quite breathtaking.
This scene is very clear, you can see the reflection of the sun on the river even though the photo is in black and white. It's also a great view of the mountains, trees, river, clouds, etc.
This photo looks bright and snowy. The river looks really smooth and soothing.
