Ansel Adams: An Autobiography13 reviews
Ansel Adams, Mary Street Alinder

Bulfinch, 1996

Both enlightening and inspiring
While this book is about Ansel Adams, it is also about the struggle to make photography a recognized form of art. If you have any interest at all about the non-technical history of photography, I would highly recommend this book. There is much more here than just the thoughts and ideas of one man. Each of the people that influenced Adams are described in detail, and in doing so, Adams ...
  
  











  



  
The Print (Ansel Adams Photography, Book 3)10 reviews
Ansel Adams

Bulfinch, 1995

content excellent, one little remark for the publisher.
The book is excellent. Although these techniques are not widely applied today, with appropriate experience and thinking this knowledge can be applied and transferred to modern software like Adobe Photoshop. It can help relate modern and classic photography printing processes (traditional vs computerized). One little remark would be for the publisher. The paper the book is printed is gloss with ...
  
  











  



  
The Camera (Ansel Adams Photography, Book 1)26 reviews
Ansel Adams

Bulfinch, 1995

The FIRST BOOK YOU SHOULD READ!
I got into photography about 3 years ago (digital) and read through about 2 dozen glossy "authoritative" books. None of which could explain the basics to relate ISO/fStop/Speed in a way that didn't assume you already knew what they were. Most of the book relates to Large Format which may at first seem a bit off-putting to a novice, but after a few pages you'll see how it doesn't matter ...
  
  











  



  
Ansel Adams at 10023 reviews
Ansel Adams, John Szarkowski

Bulfinch, 2003

A pioneer of photography and art
Ansel Adams at 100 by John Szarkowski is a beautiful collection of Adam's finest work. The first fifth of this 191 page book contains a bibliography about Ansel Adams. I was able to read about the trials and tribulations of Adams' family issues, life, and his discovery of his passion for photography. It was in this book that I found out where Adams' passion began - Yosemite National Park. Though, ...
  
  











  



  
Examples: The Making of 40 Photographs15 reviews
Ansel Adams

Bulfinch, 1989

A charming insight into the soul of a great photographer
There are many great books about photography, of which this is just one, but there are relatively few books about how to be a great photographer. On the latter topic this book is exceptional. Ansel Adams was clearly both a gentleman and a gentle man, who lived to create great images for the pleasure and education of others. We are exceptionally lucky that he left us both his wonderful ...

Ansel Adams: Classic Images6 reviews
Ansel Adams, James Alinder, ...

Bulfinch, 1986

An exquisite collection!
This is a wonderful book filled with breathtaking photographs taken by the late and well-respected Ansel Adams. Each of the photographs contained is a unique masterpiece with a life of its own. Looking at these splendid photographs, one feels drawn right in to the specific location and year. Some of my favorites include, "The Golden Gate Before the Bridge" (1932), "Barn, Cape Cod, Massachusetts" ...
  
  











  



  
The Negative (Ansel Adams Photography, Book 2)35 reviews
Ansel Adams

Bulfinch, 1995

An excellent technical reference
Concisely written in Adams' own scholarly style, "The Negative" is a valuable resource for photographers learning the foundation of technically correct (as opposed to generally good) base exposure in a variety of scenes, both pedestrian and those that are more conflicting. One must, however, consider that more than 4 decades have passed since the techniques were founded and the technology ...
  
  











  



  
Ansel Adams 2009 Wall Calendar5 reviews

Ansel Adams, 2008

1st class product & service
This is an outstandong calendar that my daughter asks for and gets from us at Christmas. Over the past two years our UK book stores stopped stocking it. That's where Amazon comes in..........ordered, and delivered well before estimated delivery time from America via Germany AND even with post & packing charges it was cheaper than walking into a book store in the UK. This is where buying on the ...
  
  











  



  
Yosemite and the High Sierra3 reviews

Ansel Adams: Trees3 reviews
Ansel Adams

Bulfinch, 2004

Brilliant Pictures, Insightful Text, Impeccable Printing
I really, really don't understand how a person can see so much out of so little. There's a tree right outside my window. It looks like a tree, seen one seen all of them. But Ansel Adams didn't just see a tree. Sure he saw a tree. But he also saw its shape, the texture of its bark, it's setting, perhaps the brook flowing by, or the mist or the clouds, maybe the mountain in the background. And ...
  
  











  



  
Ansel Adams in Color12 reviews
Ansel Adams, Harry Callahan

Bulfinch, 1993

Insight About Color Photography For Ansel Adams Fans
As a photographer with over 50 years of experience with cameras, I found the color photos by Ansel Adams interesting and enjoyable to peruse. But, the most important aspect of this book for me were the quoted passages from Ansel's letters and other writings regarding the challenges of making meaningful and art-level color photographs. Ansel envisioned the coming world of color photography and ...
  
  











  



  
Presumed Innocence1 review
Anne Higonnet, Rachel Lafo

DeCordova Museum, 2008

...Found Otherwise
Spanning several continents and encompassing nearly the entire history of photography, Presumed Innocence examines the other side of childhood through the eyes of some of the most notable photographers in the history of the art. Not too surprisingly from the title, the outlook leans towards the bleaker side, with many of the youths pictured appearing wise, worldly, and sometimes merely old beyond ...
  
  











  



  
Ansel Adams: The National Parks Service Photographs (Tiny Folio)3 reviews
Ansel Adams

Abbeville Press, 2004

Wee, but Wonderful
This wee little book (4 inch by 4 inch format) dispels the notion that the work of Ansel Adams can only be appreciated in a coffee table book. Organized into 10 sections by location (Zion National Park, Yellowstone, etc.) and peoples (Native Americans and Their Lands), it shows Adams's work out west in our great national places like Grand Canyon and the Boulder Dam. The great appeal of this ...
  
  











  



  
The Portfolios of Ansel Adams2 reviews
Ansel Adams

Little, Brown And Company, 1994

A great collection of images
This book is a compilation of images that Ansel compiled into portfolios, along with a brief introduction by the author. Some of these images can be found in other compilations, but are more powerful here because they are grouped as Ansel chose to group them. Each of his portfolios is well printed, for a book printing of a silver image that is, and his statement is included for each, just as in ...

Sierra Nevada: The John Muir Trail2 reviews
Ansel Adams

Bulfinch, 2006

Lives up to the original
The original version of this book was published in 1938 in a limited edition of only 500 copies. Ansel's other well known work of this early period include his portfolio entitled Parmelian Prints of the High Sierras (1927) and his other early books include Taos Pueblo (published in a limited edition of about 100 copies around 1930), and the relatively common instructional book "Making a ...
