Happy 111th Ansel Adams!

Postby SurfnSnowboard » Wed Feb 20, 2013 6:36 pm

Today is Ansel Adams 111th birthday. He is definitely my favorite photographer mostly because of my love of Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. If you've never been to an exhibition of his prints I highly recommend checking it out. It's amazing to see his work in very large format prints. Impressive is an understatement!

In honor of Ansel here are a couple of my shots that I took where Ansel also shot.

Please share your images that either remind you of Ansel Adams' work or were inspired by him.
