 Ansel Easton Adams (February 20, 1902 – April 22,
1984) was an American landscape photographer and
environmentalist known for his black-and-white images of
the American West. He helped found Group f/64, an
association of photographers advocating "pure"
photography which favored sharp focus and the use of the
full tonal range of a photograph. He and Fred Archer
developed an exacting system of image-making called the
Zone System, a method of achieving a desired final print
through a deeply technical understanding of how tonal
range is recorded and developed during exposure, negative
development, and printing. The resulting clarity and depth
of such images characterized his photography.
