A Visit to the Home of Ansel Adams

Ansel Adams is often regarded as one of the most influential photographers of the modern era. However, it is comforting to know that he too stumbled into his profession as a photographer. He was not formally trained as a photographer and many of his most famous works happened as chance. While Adams certainly had a good eye for his subject, his pictures were often taken by chance. Adams just happened to be in the right place at the right time. It is also important to note that Ansel Adams darkroom was really no more outfitted than the capabilities available to every photographer in software such as Photoshop and Aperture.
