Ansel Adams Photo

Photo of foam on water.

       This photo is my favorite because you can't tell what the photo is of the first time you look at it. Also it kind of looks like space with the stars and planets mixing together.


Ansel Adams was born February 20, 1907 in San Francisco, California. Ansel was a dyslexic child, not being able to understand the information that was taught to him in public schools. He switch public school many times until he joined Wilkins Private school getting his legitimizing diploma like completing 8th grade. Ansel taught himself how to play the piano and read music. Soon after he started taking lessons. That's when he decided to work in the music field. And that was his occupation for 12 years until he switched to photography. In 1927, he decided to become a full photographer and took his first fully visualized photograph, monolith, the Face of Half Dome. Three other interesting facts about Ansel include that he described himself as a photographer, lecturer, and writer implicating that he was a compulsive communicator. Also, there was no such things as vacations for Ansel, not even weekends, he only worked. Lastly, he admired another photographer called Alfred Stieglitz and based his work off of his com positional outlook.

This is a cool photo because it is the perfect time of day, in between night and day.

This is an interesting photo because there is pretty much no movement in the clouds making this a difficult photo to take.

Found Face Story

 

Once upon a time there was a lid named Pike. Pike, with his parents Walker and Pam, used to travel the world together hoping to discover the one thing that will brighten their lives forever. One day the family rolled across a big dark pipe. Against his parent's wishes Pike eagerly rolled inside hoping to find the something he had been looking for, but not being able to see, Pike fell down a long and fun slide until rolling out the other end into a big puddle on the side of a street. Amazingly, Pike was able to escape the grasp of the cold, deep, water. After having discovered his talent for swimming, Pike looked around. He somewhat recognized where he was because of a map he looked at before.  Good thing Pike's occupation is a traveling instructor. Pike then set off looking for his family. He traveled for days looking high and low until, unexpectedly, Pike fell into a circular shaped hole. At first, Pike struggled with all of his might. Then he realized that this was the thing he was looking for, a perfect place to fit in. And there Pike still sits, happily waiting for his parents to find him.
