One of my Case studies was Ansel Adams, my photos aren’t exactly similar settings to his as we don’t have places like that in jersey but I took photos in outdoor landscapes and edited them in similar ways to him.

These are images that Ansel Adams took that I used as inspiration, because they show very clearly what Ansel Adams was trying to achieve with contrast, even when in black and white.

These are a few of my images that I think are similar.

I picked these images to compare as they have similarities to Ansel Adams, not only did I do my best trying to get similar locations, like the rocks, and having a similar sunshine, in one of the picks, the main similarity though is that they are all coloured black and white, and the contrast, Adam Ansel would take a photo and look at what he wanted to see so all he had to do was change the sheet to red to bring out a different, effect and show the world what you couldn’t see just looking at the mountains, and it would change the whole photo when making one part black and another part white but with also 8 other shades in-between.

I did another artist study on a photographer names fay Goodwin, I mainly used photos of hers as inspo but kept along the lines of Ansel editing because I found her photos were more similar to my locations I had in jersey.
