One of Ansel Adams photographs.

The Tetons and Snake River, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming.

Content
This is a photogaph of the Tetons and snake river, Gran Teton National Park, Wyoming. This photo was taken in 1933-1942. This is photograph of a river and nature with mountains in the background. This photograph seems to represent the power of nature. At the background, we have a hard mountain and in the picture we have a river and the river was able to make its way through the mountain even though it is really hard and strong. The title does not really change the way i see this image. This photograph is a realistic depiction and if for any reason some of it is exaggerated then it is the use of black and white but that is what makes the picture beautiful. The theme of this photograph can be calmness and Adams seems to love black and white photograph which relates to my theme. As the river is finding its way through the mountains, it could mean that the message that this photograph is trying to communicate is to never give up no matter what.
Form
This photograph is black and white and it affects the mood of the photograph as it makes it more look more calm. The photograph is both high and low contrast, for example the river is low contras and the plants and trees are low contrast. There are many defferent lines in the photograph. Curved lines around the river and straight sharp lines on the mountain, This ads an amazing effect to the photo. These are curvd shapes,and triangles in this photograph. The fact that the river is curved and the mountains are triangles and sharp, yet the river is still able to find its way through the mountain does clearly show that the is nothing impossible.
Process
This photograph is taken outside most probably at day time but the use of black and white made it look dark. A camera has been used and also photoshop to make it black and white.
Mood
This photograph makes me feel calm because of the river and the fact that its curved also adds to this feeling aswell as the colour.
