Summary :

Photography becomes more than art, more than paintings, or sculptures. It exposes the truth to life that a brush can barely compare to.
Adams' created the Zone System using all the different values of gray, and here is what he came up with.
Another photograph among Ansel Adams' large collection is Clearing Storm photographed in 1938 in Sonoma County.
Wynn Bullock came around years following Ansel Adams around the 1950s. He shared similarities in style to Edward Weston, longtime friend, and became famous for his photographs of nudes and landscapes.
Another brilliant photograph of Wynn Bullock is Point Lobos, Tide Pool in 1957.
A more modern photographer by the name of Jerry Uelsmann was part of the postwar generation of black and white photographers.
The second image that was attention grabbing was untitled and created in 1975.
The three photographers I chose all used black and white; yet they used it in different ways.

Abstract

Photography becomes more than art, more than paintings, or sculptures. It exposes the truth to life that a brush can barely compare to. If there is a passion, a real love for the art, photography becomes consuming, sinking into the skin forever. Every aspect of the soul becomes sucked into every turn, corner, or endless hole of a photograph. Since the days of the camera obscura in the early 1700s, photographers have continually stretched the boundaries, developing an ever-growing list of styles. Among the multitude of revolutionary photographers, stand some of the later photographers who could merely expand on what was already available. Three such photographers are Ansel Adams, Wynn Bullock, and Jerry Uelsmann, all of who worked during the 20th century ranging from more traditional landscape photography to digitized works.
