Ansel Adams Post

 Ansel Adams education before attending a private school was being tutored at home by his father and aunt because of his trouble of fitting in school. Beside having a love for photography, Ansel took on the profession of being a piano player. With all the problems he had as he was young the piano seemed to help ease how bad they were. In the year 1927, Ansel created his first monolith, the Face of Half Dome. Ansel Adams life evolved around photography: he spent about eighteen hours a day and there wasn't any days off no matter the day. As for his pictures, they show the love he had towards the environment and wilderness that his was even an activist to protect it. Throughout his photography life, Adams created the "zone system." Using the zone system, you would visualize how you would want an image to turn out and then take a picture of it that was very close to what you imagined.

This is the image I chose from Ansel Adams because I thought it looked amazing even in black in white. Usually what catches your attention are the vibrant colors in an image but in this case the color doesn't matter. This shows Adams love for nature. The black and white in this image go perfect as they stand out but at the same time blend in.

Panorama Post

 I love how this image captures a big part of Paris and especially the Eiffel tower. I also like the vibrant colors it has since it was taken during the day.

I think cherry blossom trees are amazingly pretty. the way this trail lights up makes them stand out even more.  The panorama captured most of the trees in a good position.

Found Faces Story

This is Ice Cold. He lives in the NHS hallways eating people's money as a living. Sometimes he feels invisible because people just feed him and walk away as if he wasn't even human. His family is scattered around the campus doing the same job. His brother Ice Cube lives right next to him keeping him company. Their eyes blink on and off signaling at people to feed them. His favorite thing to do is watch the way people act. From jumping up and down, walking, running past him to keeping him company. If you're wondering how he got his name it's because he is Ice Cold when he takes peoples money - he doesn't care if it's your last dollar all he wants is for you to feed him. He loves giving people temptation. The way the student's eyes light up for that last fruit punch soda is thrilling to him. You better make sure that dollar bill isn't creased or he'll spit it back at you waiting for you to put a more fresh dollar bill.  Even though he can come off as cold hearted, he is just doing this job to keep a roof on his head.
