Merced River, Cliffs, Autumn

The quality of the piece is outstanding. The detail, the contrast between blacks and whites etc. more than meet my expectations. I suspect it’s very, very close to what Ansel Adams had in mind.

This was taken at Eagle N st, New Mexico. Just kind of a “wanna be” Ansel Adams. I’ve admired Ansel since 1974 when a camera shop I worked in had one of his shows in their gallery. Originals! Oh how I wish I could have afforded one of those prints. But I was a college student on a student’s budget.
