Ansel Adams

In this video I'm going to talk about the work of Ansel Adams.

Ansel is one of the most successful photographers of all time. He is largely responsible for starting the "California School" of photographers along with Imogen Cunningham and Edward Weston. Their Group f/64 rejected the Pictorialism styles of the day in favor of "pure" or "straight photography"

His most notable subjects were landscapes, particularly those of Yosemite National Park. Ansel developed printing techniques that yielded beautiful prints with an emphasis on tonality and sharpness.

Along with Fred Archer, the two developed what we know today as the Zone System. The Zone System is a formalized process for black and white printing. It divides the picture into measured zone densities allowing the photographer to control the exposure in camera, negative processing and the final print.

My name is Ted Forbes and I make videos about photography. I’ve been making photographs most of my life and I have a tremendously deep passion for photography that I want to share with you on YouTube.

The Art of Photography is my channel and I produce photography videos to provide a 360 degree look into the world of making images. We all want to get better so lets do this together!

I make videos covering famous photographers, photography techniques, composition, the history of photography and much more.

I also have a strong community of photographers who watch the show and we frequently do social media challenges for photographers to submit their own work. I feature the best and most interesting on the show when we do these so come check it out and get involved!

So come check it out! If you’re a fan of DigitalRev, Fro Knows Photo (Jared Polin), Matt Grainger (That Nikon Guy) or Tony Northrup - you’ll love The Art of Photography. I make video’s giving you a deeper dive into photography techniques, composition and history to compliment the other channels you love to watch.

New shows come out every Sunday, Tuesday and Friday.
