What Is The Difference Between Ansel Adams Tetons And The Snake River
Ansel Adams was born February 20, 1902, in San Francisco, California (Turnage). Adams first became involved with photography in 1916 when his parents gave him a Kodak Box Brownie camera when they went to Yosemite National Park on a summer vacation. When Adams was 12 he taught himself to play the piano, he then supported himself by teaching piano later on until 1930(Lorenz). In 1919, at the age of 17, Adams became involved with the Sierra Club. In 1927 Adams went on the Sierra Clubs High Trip, and the next year he became the Clubs official trip photographer (History). Adams published his first illustrated book, Parmelian Prints of the High Sierras, in 1927. It was followed shortly by Taos pueblo, which was published in 1930. In the 1930’s he

Looking at the image we can see a snow peaked mountain range in the background, with some dark grey clouds above them. The clouds to the right of the image appear to be thicker and it even looks like it is snowing. While the clouds in the left top corner of the image are dispersing and you can even see a little bit of sunshine coming through. The image then leads off from the base of the mountains into what appears to be a valley with a river running through it. I am assuming the rivers name is Snake River. The river starts at the bottom right hand corner of the image, it goes to the left of the image and then makes a loop back to the right, goes to the middle of the image, and then it make a loop to the left. The river then disappears behind some trees and you can no longer see it. From the base of the mountains on the right of the image you see that the valley leads right to the river, and then there seems to be a sudden drop in the terrain when it reaches the rivers loop in the middle of the image. From that loop of the river we see that there appears to be trees from that sudden drop all along the river on the right side of the image coming towards the bottom of the image. As we look closer to the river we see that there appears to be a sandy “beach” along the river’s edge. Now looking at the middle of the image starting at the base of the mountains we see that valley, and there appears to be some little hills in it all the way to the river. However, looking to the left of the image if we start at the base of the mountain again we cannot see the valley because we see the nearest hill to us and the river. That hill has some trees on it and it also looks to be kind of sandy when it drops down closer to the river bank. Looking back to the middle of the image again only more to the left of the river, we see that there seems to be trees covering the flat that the river is flowing through.
