Ansel Easton Adams was an American photographer and environmentalist known for his black-and-white landscape photography, particularly of the American West, especially Yosemite National Park. One of his most famous works is 'Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico.' He developed the zone system, a method for determining proper photo exposure and adjusting printed photo contrast, which defined his work and that of his students. Adams primarily used large-format cameras, contributing to the extraordinary sharpness of his images. His iconic photography continues to be used in calendars, posters, and books.
