The noted photographer provides detailed descriptions of the basic equipment of photography, discussing the major camera formats and techniques for using that equipment creatively.
The invitation to photograph the nation's parklands was the perfect assignment for Adams, as it allowed him to express his deepest convictions as artist, conservationist, and citizen. These stunning photographs of the natural geysers and terraces in Yellowstone, the rocks and ravines in the Grand Canyon, the winding rivers and majestic mountains in Glacier and Grand Teton national parks, the mysterious Carlsbad Caverns, the architecture of ancient Indian villages, and many other evocative views of the American West demonstrate the genius of Adams' technical and aesthetic inventiveness.
In these glorious, seminal images we see the inspired reverence for the wilderness that has made Ansel Adams' work an enduring influence on environmentalism as well as art.
A revised and expanded edition of the landmark publication, featuring full-colour images from America's greatest landscape photographer, beautifully redesigned and repackaged.
The early chapters are devoted to a discussion of light, film and exposure. What follows is a detailed discussion of the zone system, in which Adams had an early pioneering role, chapters on natural and artificial light and at the end of the book is an extensive chapter on the darkroom.
C'est en 1928, à l'occasion de la sortie annuelle du Sierra Club dans les Rocheuses Canadiennes, qu'Ansel Adams se joint pour la première fois à cette organisation de protection de l'environnement en tant que photographe officiel. Les splendides images de ce trek ambitieux, dans lesquelles transparaît l'émotion des débuts, marqueront le début de sa longue carrière de photographe.
