Ansel Easton Adams<br />
Ansel Easton Adams<br />
Ansel Easton Adams (February 20, 1902 – April 22, 1984)<br />
was an American photographer and environmentalist.<br />
Hisblack-and-white landscape photographs of the American<br />
West, especially Yosemite National Park, have been widely<br />
reproduced on calendars, posters, and books.<br />
With Fred Archer, Adams developed the Zone System as a<br />
way to determine proper exposure and adjust the contrast<br />
of the final print. The resulting clarity and depth<br />
characterized his photographs. Adams primarily used largeformatcameras<br />
because their high resolution helped ensure<br />
sharpness in his images.<br />
Adams founded the photography group known as Group<br />
f/64 along with fellow photographers Willard Van Dyke and<br />
Edward Weston.<br />
Adams was born in the Western Addition of San Francisco, California, to distinctly upper-class parents Charles<br />
Hitchcock Adams and Olive Bray Adams. Adams became interested in piano at age 12. Music became the main<br />
focus of his later youth. His father sent him to piano teacher Marie Butler, who focused on perfectionism and<br />
accuracy. After four years of studying under her guidance, Adams moved on to other teachers, one being<br />
composer Henry Cowell. For the next twelve years, the piano was Adams' primary occupation and, by 1920, his<br />
intended profession. Although he ultimately gave up music for photography, the piano brought substance,<br />
discipline and structure to his frustrating and erratic youth. Moreover, the careful training and exacting craft<br />
required of a musician profoundly informed his visual artistry, as well as his influential writings and teachings on<br />
photography.<br />
In 1927, Adams produced his first portfolio, Parmelian Prints of the High Sierras, in his new style, which included<br />
his famous image Monolith, the Face of Half Dome, taken with his Korona view camera using glass plates and a<br />
dark red filter (to heighten the tonal contrasts). Between 1929 and 1942, Adams's work matured and he became<br />
more established. In the course of his 60-year career, the 1930s were a particularly productive and experimental<br />
time. Adams expanded his works, focusing on detailed close-ups as well as large forms from mountains to<br />
factories. In 1930 Taos Pueblo, Adams's first book was published with text by writer Mary Hunter Austin.<br />
Adams did not work exclusively in black and white. He also experimented with color. His subjects that he shot in<br />
color ranged from portraits to landscape to architecture, a similar scope to that of his black and white work.<br />
There are two main reasons, according to an expert source, why Adams preferred black and white. The first was<br />
that he felt color could be distracting, and could therefore divert an artist‟s attention away from achieving his full<br />
potential when taking a photograph. Adams actually claimed that he could get “a far greater sense of „color‟ through<br />
a well-planned and executed black-and-white image than [he had] ever achieved with color photography”.<br />

Location: Glacier Bay, Alaska
Glacier Bay, Alaska<br />
Lofty mountain peaks, ice-sculptured fjords, an abundance of marine wildlife and, most of all, massive tidewater<br />
glaciers, have made Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve one of Alaska's most spectacular settings and a muststop<br />
for every cruise ship sailing north through Southeast Alaska. The 3.3 million acre park is indeed an icy<br />
wilderness.<br />
Today, glaciers still cover 27 percent of the Park. There are more than 50 named glaciers of which seven are active<br />
tidewater glaciers that calve icebergs into the sea. Two of them, Johns Hopkins and Margerie Glaciers, are advancing.<br />
Encircling the park to the west is the Fair-weather Range, the highest coastal mountains in the world at 15,000 feet.<br />
In 1794 a survey crew described what is now called Glacier Bay as a five-mile indent in a glacier that stretched “as far<br />
as the eye could distinguish.” In 1879 when scientist/naturalist John Muir visited the area, he found the ice had<br />
retreated more than 30 miles, creating an actual bay. The glacier has continued to recede at a rapid rate.<br />
Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve was named a national monument in 1925. In 1980, the area became a<br />
national park and preserve, and 2.7 million acres received wilderness designation. In 1986, the park became a<br />
biosphere reserve, and the area was named a world heritage site in 1992.<br />
More than 90 percent of the park's visitors arrive on cruise ships, which swing through the vast bay but never stop.<br />
The rest pass through either the village of Gustavus or the park headquarters of Bartlett Cove for a variety of<br />
adventures. Most of the activities in the park are water-focused with the most popular being boat tours, kayaking,<br />
river rafting, fishing, glacier viewing and whale watching. The park's 10 miles of maintained trails is limited to<br />
Bartlett Cove but Glacier Bay offers an excellent opportunity for people who have experience on the water but not<br />
necessarily as kayakers. Kayakers are often dropped off in the well-protected arms and inlets deep in the bay where<br />
they paddle past glaciers and camp along the shoreline on their own or as part of a guided kayaking tour.<br />
As marine waters make up nearly one-fifth of the park, Glacier Bay is rich with marine life, including the endangered<br />
humpback whale, orcas, threatened stellar sea lions, harbor seals, sea otters and porpoises. In addition to marine<br />
mammals, Glacier Bay is home to a large bear population, both brown and black, as well as the blue glacier bear, a<br />
rare color phase of the black. Moose, wolves, Sitka black tail deer, mountain goats and bald eagle also thrive in the<br />
park.<br />
The bay has a cool wet, coastal temperate rainforest climate. Three climatic zones have been discerned in the Glacier<br />
Bay; the outer coast along the Gulf of Alaska, which records mild temperatures and higher precipitation. However, it<br />
experiences less snowfall, the upper Glacier Bay where it is much colder and heavy snowfall occurs, and the lower<br />
Glacier Bay, which experiences heavy rainfall throughout the year.<br />
The summer temperatures vary between 50 °F (10 °C)) and 60 °F (16 °C), while the winter temperatures lie in the<br />
range of 20 to 30 °F (−7 to −1 °C), with minimum going up to −10 °F (−23 °C).<br />

Mistaya Canyon, Canada<br />

Location: Glacier Bay, Alaska<br />
Mistaya Canyon! If you love the outdoors, seek out adventure, or just appreciate incredible natural beauty,<br />
this dream is for you. It’s no secret that Banff is one of the most breathtaking national parks in North<br />
America. Its 2,564 square miles are full of mountains, hot springs, forests, rivers, glaciers, and<br />
stunningly blue lakes.<br />
Mistaya Canyon is a canyon in the western part of the Alberta province of Canada. It is formed by<br />
the Mistaya River. Tourists who are visiting Banff National Park often visit it because of its distinctive curvy<br />
canyon walls and because it is easy to access, being just offs the Ice fields Parkway. The 0.5 km trail to the<br />
canyon is located at a large parking area on the west side of the Parkway, part way up the long hill south of<br />
the North Saskatchewan River. There are actually two such parking areas on the hill; the Mistaya one is<br />
clearly marked by signs on the highway and at the beginning of the trail. The trail is an easy walk in summer<br />
but too steep for wheelchairs. The canyon is deep and there are no railings. The trail is icy in early spring.<br />
Hikers will find that the Howse Pass Trail continues past the canyon.<br />

Tower Bridge, London<br />

Location: Tower Bridge, London<br />
Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London. The bridge crosses the River Thames close to<br />
the Tower of London and has become an iconic symbol of London. Tower Bridge is one of five London bridges now<br />
owned and maintained by the Bridge House Estates, a charitable trust overseen by the City of London Corporation. It is<br />
the only one of the Trust's bridges not to connect the City of London directly to the Southwark bank, the northern<br />
landfall being in Tower Hamlets.<br />
The bridge consists of two bridge towers tied together at the upper level by two horizontal walkways, designed to<br />
withstand the horizontal tension forces exerted by the suspended sections of the bridge on the landward sides of the<br />
towers. The vertical components of the forces in the suspended sections and the vertical reactions of the two walkways<br />
are carried by the two robust towers. The bascule pivots and operating machinery are housed in the base of each tower.<br />
The bridge's present colour scheme dates from 1977, when it was painted red, white and blue for Queen Elizabeth<br />
II's Silver Jubilee. Originally it was painted a mid greenish-blue colour<br />
The bridge deck is freely accessible to both vehicles and pedestrians, whilst the bridge's twin towers, high-level<br />
walkways and Victorian engine rooms form part of the Tower Bridge Exhibition, for which an admission charge is<br />
made.<br />

Verona, Italy<br />

Location: Verona, Italy<br />
Verona, in the Veneto region of north-east Italy, is one of Italy's loveliest towns, famous for its summer opera season.<br />
This has been a thriving and successful town for most of its history, and today smart shops and cafes fill the attractive<br />
medieval lanes of the historic centre. Verona is a popular day-trip from Lake Garda and an appealing destination for<br />
weekend breaks or longer stays. There's a lot to see here, from Roman ruins to the so-called 'Juliet's balcony', and the<br />
town is also well-connected for exploring the surrounding area, including destinations like Lake Garda, Vicenza, &<br />
Venice.<br />
Verona was an important Roman town and is rich in archaeological sites, the grandest of which is the Roman Arena,<br />
where operas are now performed in the summer. Three of Shakespeare's plays are set in Verona: Romeo and<br />
Juliet, The Two Gentlemen of Verona, and The Taming of the Shrew. The city has been awarded World Heritage<br />
Site status by UNESCO because of its urban structure and architecture.<br />
Verona has a humid subtropical climate characteristic of Northern Italy's inland plains, with hot summers and cold,<br />
humid winters, even though Lake Garda's almost-Mediterranean climate has a partial influence on the city. The relative<br />
humidity is high throughout the year, especially in winter when it causes fog, mainly from dusk until late morning,<br />
although the phenomenon has become increasingly less frequent in recent years.<br />

CREATIVE PHOTOGRAPHY<br />
By Sally Thomas<br />
Instagram ID - @salmorrison<br />
Sally Thomas is our creative specialist at @iglobalphotographers. Each <strong>edition</strong>, she will be sharing her tips for<br />
adding creativity to photographs.<br />
I really enjoy choosing creative features for @iglobalphotographers and it isn't an easy task as there are so many<br />
great ones in the gallery! I think creativity is a really broad genre - it can mean an interesting subject, a great<br />
perspective, photography technique (such as light trails or depth of field) or a brilliant edit afterwards.<br />
Some people have a natural flair for creative photography but I genuinely believe it's a skill you can learn.<br />
Here are three very simple steps to get started.<br />
1. Move around and capture your subject from different positions - I always get strange looks as I sometimes lie on<br />
the ground to take photos!<br />
2. Try using the 'rule of thirds' I'll expand on this next time but rather than have your subject right in the centre,<br />
have it on the left or right.<br />
3. Editing - you don't need fancy software; try using the Instagram editing tools.<br />
Filters are an instant way to add a dramatic effect:<br />
or you can fine-tune with highlights:<br />
warmth:<br />
and/or colour. Play around with both shadow and highlight colours - you can get some great subtle or dramatic<br />
effects.<br />
Tilt shift always adds a creative touch and is also good for blurring out any grainy effects you sometimes get with<br />
filters.<br />
These are just simple tips to get you started - hope you find them useful!<br />
One more thing to mention - take photographs YOU like not that you think someone else will like! You will develop<br />
your own style and a great gallery that is really unique and interesting.<br />
Until next time!<br />

Henri Cartier-Bresson<br />
Henri Cartier-Bresson; August 22, 1908 – August 3, 2004) was<br />
a French photographer considered the master of candid<br />
photography, and an early user of 35 mm film. He helped<br />
develop street photography, and approvingly cited a notion of<br />
the inevitability of a decisive moment, a term adopted as the<br />
title for his first major book. His work has influenced many<br />
photographers. Henri Cartier-Bresson was born in Chanteloupen-Brie,<br />
Seine-et-Marne, France, the oldest of five children. His<br />
father was a wealthy textile manufacturer, whose Cartier-<br />
Bresson thread was a staple of French sewing kits. His mother's<br />
family was cotton merchants and landowners from Normandy,<br />
where Henri spent part of his childhood. The Cartier-Bresson<br />
family lived in a bourgeois neighborhood in Paris, Rue de<br />
Lisbonne, near Place de l'Europe and Parc Monceau. His<br />
parents supported him financially so Henri could pursue<br />
photography more freely than his contemporaries. Henri also<br />
sketched.<br />
Cartier-Bresson nearly always used a Leica 35 mm rangefinder camera fitted with a normal 50 mm lens, or<br />
occasionally a wide-angle lens for landscapes. He often wrapped black tape around the camera's chrome body to<br />
make it less conspicuous. With fast black and white film and sharp lenses, he was able to photograph events<br />
unnoticed. No longer bound by a 4×5 press camera or an medium format twin-lens reflex camera, miniatureformat<br />
cameras gave Cartier-Bresson what he called "the velvet hand...the hawk's eye."<br />
He never photographed with flash, a practice he saw as "impolite...like coming to a concert with a pistol in your<br />
hand."<br />
He believed in composing his photographs in the viewfinder, not in the darkroom. He showcased this belief by<br />
having nearly all his photographs printed only at full-frame and completely free of any cropping or other darkroom<br />
manipulation. He insisted that his prints were not cropped as they include the first few millimeters of the<br />
unexposed negative around the image area, resulting in a black frame around the developed picture.<br />
Cartier-Bresson worked exclusively in black and white, other than a few unsuccessful attempts in color. He disliked<br />
developing or making his own prints and showed a considerable lack of interest in the process of photography in<br />
general, likening photography with the small camera to an "instant drawing”. Technical aspects of photography<br />
were valid for him only where they allowed him to express what he saw:<br />
Constant new discoveries in chemistry and optics are widening considerably our field of action. It is up to us to<br />
apply them to our technique, to improve ourselves, but there is a whole group of fetishes which have developed on<br />
the subject of technique. Technique is important only insofar as you must master it in order to communicate what<br />
you see... The camera for us is a tool, not a pretty mechanical toy. In the precise functioning of the mechanical<br />
object perhaps there is an unconscious compensation for the anxieties and uncertainties of daily endeavor. In any<br />
case, people think far too much about techniques and not enough about seeing.<br />

About Location: PANGONG LAKE, LEH, INDIA<br />
The place is located in Ladakh. Situated at a height of 4,250 meters, far away in barren land in Ladakh, Pangong Tso<br />
is one of the largest brackish lakes in Asia. The crystal clear blue lake sprawls over an area of 100 kilometers across<br />
the borders of two countries in India and China. It is one of the charismatic lakes situated on the Changtang plateau in<br />
eastern Ladakh region.<br />
Pangong Lake is also known by the name of Hollow Lake and appears as a clear symbol of nature craftsmanship. The<br />
brackish water plays with sunlight to produce different effects of light. One-third part of the lake lies in India while<br />
the remaining two-third lies in Tibet, a region controlled by China. A large chunk of streams that fill the lake are<br />
located on the Tibetan part. The lake is located just 5 hours drive from Leh in the Ladakh region of Jammu &<br />
Kashmir.<br />
The first glimpse of the tranquil, azure blue waters and shaky lakeshore remains etched in the memory of tourists.<br />
This area falls under army control and requires pass from deputy commissioner of Leh. During the winter season, the<br />
lake and its surroundings are engulfed by freezing temperature. The surface of the lake becomes so solid that one can’t<br />
walk over it. On the surface of frozen lake a gala festival of ice skating is organized. It calls on large number of skiers<br />
and ice skaters from several parts of the world. During this festival, tourists also get to see the local culture of the<br />
native people.<br />

About Location: JUNEAU, ALASKA<br />
Before Juneau was Juneau, it was Rockwell. Before that, it was Harrisburg. And even before<br />
that, it was a settlement for several tribes of native Indians.<br />
Gold mining met its demise during wartime, when it was deemed a non-essential activity, but<br />
Juneau's tourism industry was fast becoming a growing portion of its livelihood. In everincreasing<br />
numbers since the early 1900s, Juneau's attractions and adventures have attracted<br />
travelers and cruise ship passengers, particularly in the summer months.<br />
Today, Juneau is a thriving city offering a great blend of city amenities and small-town<br />
hospitality, all in the heart of Alaska's majestic mountains, rivers, glaciers, and forests.<br />
Nearly 31,000 people call Juneau home - many of them working in government, tourism,<br />
mining, and fishing, and all of them instilled with a deep love for this place. Such a mix of<br />
personalities makes Juneau unique.<br />

Photo Description:<br />
Last April, Laetitia and I embarqued on a very ambitious road trip from Cape Town<br />
through to Namibia and Botswana and then back to Cape Town. A 9000 km journey in<br />
our Polo spread over a little less than a month.<br />
One of the very expected stops was the orange desert of Sossusvlei in the Namibian desert.<br />
On the first evening there, we were suggested the dune 45 to watch the sunset. We drove<br />
towards the dune a good hour before the sunset. The sky was grey and rain about to fall.<br />
We started climbing the dune, which didnt seem to be very high. However, everytime we<br />
seemed to reach the top, it turned out we needed to do some more walking. The sun was<br />
setting quickly so we gave up and craked open our beers and enjoyed the view from where<br />
we were. And suddendly, this rainbow appeared, making up for this all sunset mishap. It<br />
turned out to be a great time of the trip and we even made it back to the car before the<br />
rain started pouring.<br />

New York City is a phenomenal place where people never stop moving towards their<br />
destination. The fast moving clouds in this picture really complements the speed of NYC. This<br />
is a photograph of the view above Madison Square Park, a park that is located next to the<br />
famous Flatiron Building. Like most New Yorkers, I rarely take time to appreciate the<br />
beautiful scenery of the city. This photograph was primarily taken for my digital<br />
photography class at Baruch College. The theme of this project is reproduction. We had to take<br />
the word reproduction and decide its definition in terms of photography. The same subject or<br />
scenery is reproduced thousands of times through photographs and snapshots. I decided that<br />
reproduction means the act of reproducing a subject in a way where it is most appealing to<br />
yourself.<br />

in your mind, do your own thing.

Dorothea Lange<br />
98<br />
Dorothea Lange (May 26, 1895 – October 11, 1965) was an<br />
influential American documentary photographer and<br />
photojournalist, best known for her Depression-era work<br />
for the Farm Security Administration (FSA). Lange's<br />
photographs humanized the consequences of the Great<br />
Depression and influenced the development<br />
of documentary photography.<br />
Born of second generation German immigrants on May<br />
26, 1895, at 1041 Bloomfield Street, Hoboken, New Jersey,<br />
Dorothea Lange was named Dorothea Margaretta<br />
Nutzhorn at birth. She dropped her middle name and<br />
assumed her mother's maiden name after her father<br />
abandoned the family when she was 12 years old, one of<br />
two traumatic incidents early in her life. The other was her<br />
contraction of polio at age seven which left her with a<br />
weakened right leg and a permanent limp.<br />
Lange graduated from the Wadleigh High School for Girls and was educated in photography at Columbia<br />
University inNew York City, in a class taught by Clarence H. White. She was informally apprenticed to several New<br />
York photography studios, including that of the famed Arnold Genthe. In 1918, she left New York with a female<br />
friend to travel the world, but was forced to end the trip in San Francisco due to a robbery and settled there,<br />
working as a photo finisher. By the following year she had opened a successful portrait studio. She lived across the<br />
bay in Berkeley for the rest of her life.<br />
In 1920, she married the noted western painter Maynard Dixon, with whom she had two sons, Daniel, born in<br />
1925, and John, born in 1930.<br />
With the onset of the Great Depression, Lange turned her camera lens from the studio to the street. Her studies of<br />
unemployed and homeless people, starting with “White Angel Breadline” which depicted a lone man turned away<br />
from the crowd in front of a soup kitchen run by a widow known as the White Angel, captured the attention of local<br />
photographers and led to her employment with the federal Resettlement Administration (RA), later called<br />
the Farm Security Administration(FSA).<br />
In December 1935, she divorced Dixon and married economist Paul Schuster Taylor, Professor of Economics at<br />
theUniversity of California, Berkeley. Together they documented rural poverty and the exploitation<br />
of sharecroppers and migrant laborers for the next five years – Taylor interviewing and gathering economic data,<br />
Lange taking photos.<br />
In the last two decades of her life, Lange's health was poor. She suffered from gastric problems, including<br />
bleeding ulcers, as well as post-polio syndrome – although this renewal of the pain and weakness of polio was not<br />
yet recognized by most physicians.<br />
Lange died of esophageal cancer on October 11, 1965, in San Francisco, California, at age 70.

Eugène Atget<br />
Eugène Atget ( 12 February 1857 – 4 August 1927) was a<br />
French flâneur and a pioneer of documentary<br />
photography, noted for his determination to document all<br />
of the architecture and street scenes of Paris before their<br />
disappearance to modernization. Most of his photographs<br />
were first published by Berenice Abbott after his death. An<br />
inspiration for the surrealists and other artists, his genius<br />
was only recognized by a handful of young artists in the<br />
last two years of his life, and he did not live to see the wide<br />
acclaim his work would eventually receive.<br />
Atget created a tremendous photographic record of the<br />
look and feel of nineteenth-century Paris just as it was<br />
being dramatically transformed by modernization, and its<br />
buildings were being systematically demolished.<br />
Jean-Eugène-Auguste Atget was born 12 February 1857 in Libourne. His father, carriage builder Jean-Eugène<br />
Atget, died in 1862, and his mother, Clara-Adeline Atget née Hourlier died shortly after. He was brought up by his<br />
maternal grandparents in Bordeaux and after finishing secondary education joined the merchant navy.<br />
Atget moved to Paris in 1878. He failed the entrance exam for acting class but was admitted when he had a second<br />
try. Because he was drafted for military service he could attend class only part-time, and he was expelled from<br />
drama school.<br />
Still living in Paris, he became an actor with a travelling group, performing in the Paris suburbs and the provinces.<br />
He met actress Valentine Delafosse Compagnon, who became his companion until her death. He gave up acting<br />
because of an infection of his vocal cords in 1887, moved to the provinces and took up painting without success. His<br />
first photographs, of Amiens and Beauvais, date from 1888.<br />
In 1890, Atget moved back to Paris and became a professional photographer, supplying documents for artists:<br />
studies for painters, architects, and stage designers.<br />
Starting in 1898, institutions such as the Musée Carnavalet and the Bibliothèque historique de la ville de<br />
Paris bought his photographs. The latter commissioned him ca. 1906 to systematically photograph old buildings in<br />
Paris. In 1899 he moved to Montparnasse.<br />
During World War I Eugène Atget temporarily stored his archives in his basement for safekeeping and almost<br />
completely gave up photography. Valentine's son Léon was killed at the front.<br />
In 1920–21, he sold thousands of his negatives to institutions. Financially independent, he took up photographing<br />
the parks of Versailles, Saint-Cloud and Sceaux and produced a series of photographs of prostitutes.<br />

“For me, the camera is a sketch book, an instrument of intuition and<br />
spontaneity.”<br />
― Henri Cartier-Bresson<br />
“A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you, the less you<br />
know.”<br />
― Diane Arbus<br />
“The whole point of taking pictures is so that you don’t have to explain<br />
things with words.”<br />
― Elliott Erwitt<br />
“I wish that all of nature's magnificence, the emotion of the land, the living<br />
energy of place could be photographed”<br />
― Annie Leibovitz
