Inspired Example (Ansel Adams)

After doing some research into this man, I have come realise the great things he has done and the passion he had for what he was doing and the remarkable reasons and belief in what he was doing. I find his work and drive behind it quite simular to my own views although they are not as attached to just america, and I feel that the conservation ideas he tried to bring across in his work was very valid and has possibly more relevance to todays world with the environmental issues that we are all being made aware of in recent years. Ansel Adams is a photographer I am very interested in following the example of, however as for this project I do not yet, quite know whether I will include these issues or simply do as well with landscape photography as I can.

I have began looking at landscape photography as that it where alot of my passion for photography comes from, and also some photographers such as Fay Godwin, Ansell Adams, Joe Cornish, Minor White, William Eggleston, etc.
While looking at these photographs I am tempted to do a landscape project as it is something I have not pursued yet, though I will need to find a fitting place for my photographs to be taken in, thinking of the lakes, though I may need to go somewhere closer to home for convenience.
