Photo 12

 Ansel Easton Adams was an American landscape photographer and

environmentalist. His black-and-white images American National Park, have
been widely reproduced. He used his works to promote environmental
movements.
 Title of this picture is Farm, farm workers, Mt. Williamson in background,
Manzanar Relocation Center, California it’s a photo by Ansel Adams published in
1943
 The photo has some farmers working in field and mountains in the background in
grey and white.
 This photo has lines that helps you to view the photo easier, its grey color gives
the feeling of hard work and I think because of the mountains and color mix it has
melancholia. Photo has a depth to it but it’s easy to see the back because of the
leading lines. It looks like this photo has three layers because of the color
differences between different distances. I think it could have been better if he
would aim his shoot from another angel where he could balance the mountain
and the farmers to create a symmetry. Also for me the angle of the lines is
disturbing too.
