“My go-to setup for wildlife is my reliable Sony A7III paired with the Sony 200-600. Unfortunately I can not tell these beauties what time of day to come out, how to pose, and when to move, which is why my Sony A7III has been a reliable partner with fast-tracking autofocus and great lowlight capabilities! As you can see I am drawn to portraits, my Sony 200-600 allows me to capture a unique perspective and intimate moments with these animals as their true wild selves that relatively few people will witness in their life. The eyes are always what draw me in first, they speak in a way that in my opinion we are yet to create words for and probably never will. I have been incredibly privileged to experience these moments and I want anyone seeing these photos to get a glimpse of the intensity and magic I felt.” - @allison.sponder 👏👏👏 Which one is your favorite? #SonyAlpha

Ansel Adams Photographer, Artist & Activist
*Happy Birthday to Ansel’s ‘Monolith’!* 🏞️ “Born” on this day, April 10, 1927. Andrea Stillman’s biography “Looking at Ansel Adams” includes a wonderful chapter all about this storied photograph: “In 1992 I was in Ansel’s workroom selecting images for a prospective book of his photographs when Virginia appeared and announced that she had found a stash of home movies from the late 1920s and 1930S. With anticipation we rented a movie projector to screen them. Miraculously, one reel included footage of the trek to the Diving Board. It showed Ansel in his favorite plus fours, lugging his forty-pound pack, with a rakish fedora hat and the Keds high-top basketball shoes he favored for hiking. “The climbers struggled up…in deep snow, and when they reached the Diving Board they pulled each other up with a ludicrously thin rope. Virginia fearlessly inched out onto the sharply angled granite spur, and when she reached the tip she stood up and blithely waved. It seems appropriate that Ansel presented the very first print of ‘Monolith’ to Virginia. “Ansel was twenty-five years old when he made ‘Monolith.’ At age eighty he was able to recall the experience of making the negative, every detail as clear as it more than a half century had not elapsed. He photographed Half Dome hundreds of times, and there are many different interpretations that include moons, clouds, snow, flowers, leaves, trees, even deer and people. In 1978, during one of his last annual Yosemite workshops, he and his photographic assistant, John Sexton, contemplated Half Dome together and talked about the taking of ‘Monolith’ in 1927. According to John, Ansel laughingly confided, ‘Maybe I should just have stopped then.’” Text, film footage and Ansel Adams images are copyright ©️The Ansel Adams Publishing Rights Trust.
