This photo was captivating to me because it is an astounding photo of a mountain range. This shot made me wonder where he was standing while he was taking this shot and what kind of settings he had for his camera to take this shot.
Adams was an interesting youth because he was unsuccessful in schools. He only participated in for a few year before being recognized as hyperactive and possibly dyslexic. After discovering this he got a "legitimizing diploma" from his private school that he attended. In his later years, he was not only gifted in taking photographs, he was also a talented musician. He learned to play the piano and how to read music; he later became a fine pianist and could have made a career out of playing the piano as well. In 1927, Adams took, by far, one of his most popular and historic photographs, the Face of Half Dome. Strangely enough, as being a shy child, in his adult years he was the life of the party and love to be the center of attention. Adams took wonderful photo yes, he also used alcohol to help ease his nerves and be the life of the party. Adams, being the famous photographer, was also an environmentalist. He was highly interested in the Sierra Club and their environmentalist ideas.
