 Who is Ansel Adams?
Ansel Adams or also known as Ansel Easton Adams 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. 
What did he do and what was his passion?
Adams taught himself the piano, which would become his early
passion. In 1916, following a trip to Yosemite National Park, he
also began experimenting with photography. He learned
darkroom techniques and read photography magazines,
attended camera club meetings, and went to photography and
art exhibits. He developed and sold his early photographs at
Best’s Studio in Yosemite Valley.
