Ansel Adams education before attending private school was being tutored by his father and aunt at home. Ansel's the other professions before being a photographer, was playing the piano at the age of twelve. He started taking lessons, then ardent pursuit of music then became his substitute for formal schooling. For the next couple of years, playing the piano was his primary hobby. Playing piano made Ansel feel better about his life, and kept his mind off his frustrating and erratic youth.1927, was the pivotal year of Adams’s life when he created his first fully visualized photograph, monolith, the Face of Half Dome. The wilderness and the environment were Ansel's grand passions, and his favorite places to take pictures. In the nineteenth-century,Adams was the last and defining figure in the romantic tradition for American landscape painting and photography. Ansel would always be traveling the world, for the beauty in nature, never getting a vacation, holiday nor Sundays. I chose this picture because it's old fashion, black and white and it just makes me feel more inspired for photography and what kind of fantastic pictures Adams would take.

I Chose this Panoramic photo because, My favorite season is summer. Swimming, and being in the sun is my kind of thing. It reminds me of the summer, and being able to be with all of my friends, and just having fun. But I also picked this photo because I love going to the beach, and being with my family.
This Panoramic picture is another favorite of mine because, I love the city. I love all of the lights, buildings, and also being able to see all of the people around me enjoying others company. The city is something I grew up with.

Hello There!
I see you are looking very lovely today. There is one thing we both have in common, huh! Any who, My name is Sarah I’m the one at the bottom, of course the pretty one & That’s my sister Carol up there, she’s the annoying one out of us two. She’s always scaring people away from using us with her lazy eye; Carol thinks she’s the pretty one, but really, she’s not.. ; We fight at times but she keeps me company, since all people seem to do is ignore us.
Our job is to help people out, and power things like computers! Most of my family do things like that, but they’re everywhere and we don’t really get to see them because we’re all separated from each other. If it wasn't for me and my family this world wouldn't be as good without us. When I’m bored I really like to sing, and by the way! Me and my sister have a band called “The Sisters”, we’re the best too. We sing all the time, but mostly when we’re bored. Our favorite thing to do is listen to music, like this one I heard this song for the first time called Happy by Pharrell Williams, it just makes me so happy, JUST LIKE THE SONG NAME! Carol and I are the best singers in this place. Maybe you should come listen to us sometime, you know… So we’re not bored? Anyways, I gotta go, my sister keeps bugging me. Nice talking to you, & Hope to see you soon!
I chose this picture because, it is such a beautiful scenery to see. Hollywood is a place that I dream to live in, It has some of my favorite places, and some of my favorite celebrities live there. It is just overall, beautiful!
