Ansel Inspired

Howdy, I'm alive and mostly well. :-)

I have literally been working nights days and weekends, I was on overtime Wednesday afternoon, but whatever, here it is 3 am and I'm hoping to go to sleep soon....

anywho, I just watched a documentary on Ansel Adams, A photographer that I must admit to have never heard of until people threw his name my way on occasion and until this evening didn't really know who or what he was. I immediately went to Lr and processed this (one of two shots yet unprocessed that I have left.....) If you want to take the time and compare it to 'feeling small', or 'nothin to see here' , you'd see the difference in style. almost the same take, much different vibe. AA wanted to bring what he felt more than what he saw and I think this is along those lines. It is a subtle difference, but an important one I think. Looking at this stirs my soul, looking at this brings back that giddyness that I experienced watching the scene unfold. what do you think?

Once again I've fallen behind and I don't see me catching up soon as it is hectic here with work and the holidays are racing at me, but I wanted to throw this out there for debate before I checked out.

 

please take a moment to blow this up and tell me what you think.
