Straight Photography

From the late Modernism through Post-Modernism period , several types of photography were practiced. Like Stieglitz, Weston and Paul Strand, Ansel Adams was a leading supporter of the type known as “straight” photography.

Straight or, “undoctored photograpy” was used by Ansel Adams as a medium of expression. Adams used a large-format view camera to capture the landscape. His photographs reveal his technical expertise by presenting texture, shapes and excellent tonal range. His spectacular photographs have appeared in many books.

You can find a book on Ansel Adams and other artist, art exhibition catalogs and magazine back issues at Nella’s Books and Collectibles.
