Ansel Adams’ assistant talks about his iconic work
2008 April 28
“Autumn Moon, the High Sierra from Glacier Point” (1948)
The New York Times has a great audio-visual slideshow of Ansel Adams’ great photographs taken in Yosemite National Park. The commentary is spoken by Andrea G. Stillman who served as Adams’ photo assistant on their expeditions through the park.
I’m sad to say that I’ve never been to Yosemite National Park, but when I do, I’m sure I’ll be doing what everybody else does when they get there. I’ll take some photos and try to mimic the look of Ansel Adams’ photographs.
