It’s Ansel’s B-day today!!! As far as black & white goes, he’s the man right?

from the Ansel Adams Gallery - Yosemite Valley, Thunderstorm; 1945
I have stood in this very spot and taken this very image, but it will never ever look this good.
The Zone System (which was pioneered by Adams) class almost killed me in art school, but I’m a better photographer because of it. Thanks for helping me understand the magic of the zones.
