Ansel Adams
This Ric Burns documentary is the intimate portrait of a revolutionary photographer who not only pioneered photographic technique but also crusaded for the environment. His stunning photos in California's Sierra Nevada Mountains mean to capture what he called “the continuous beauty of the things that are”. Few American artists have reached a wider audience nor equaled Adams' ability to grasp the majesty of our continent.
