Yosemite 1938: on the Trail With Ansel Adams and Georgia O'Keeffe February 16, 2007

The Adams album documents a wonderful excursion through Yosemite, but it is more than a typical photo album; it is a work of art in and of itself, carefully laid out and assembled by hand by Adams. The forty-eight photographs on forty-two pages present highlights of the trip, with a fine combination of broad landscapes, earthy close-ups and posed portraits. The album gives a clear sense of the journey, while it also reveals Adams's philosophy on photography, art and life.
