Landscape photography

Ansel Adams

I have chosen this photo because I like how the sun gives the sand mountain a different feeling. From where the sun is shining it looks like the left side of the mountain is the 'dark side'. I looks cold and looks like that side is supposed to have no life or living thing there. Maybe scary mythical creatures would live on that side. The bright side however looks a lot better because the sun is shining on it and  it's supposed to have happiness and joyful people/creatures on that side. It looks very warming and relaxing which would make someone happy.

This image is very clear. The photo looks like it is focusing on everything in the picture. You would expect the photo to focus on the mountains in the background because they are the largest objects in the photo, but really the rock in the centre of the photo is the main focus. It was the first thing I saw in the photo when I was doing my research. It doesn't even seem to actually stand out like a sore thumb when you really take a look at it, but as soon as you look away from the photo it seems to pop out of the photo.
