Postcard from Glacier – The Adams Grove


In the spirit of my last blog tribute to Ansel Adams, I thought I would share this black and white photo I took a couple of years ago in Glacier National Park. I knew when I took it I had seen some similar photos done by the master many years previous. I saw two of those similar photos last week at the Ansel Adams exhibit.

This is my attempt to at something similar, not only in subject and composition, but also in the final approach to making the print…contrasts, sharpness and use of his Zone System. As I said, his influence is always with me.
