He hoped that these images might inspire tourists to become activists, by transmitting the same awe and respect for nature that Yosemite had instilled in him. Over the next decades, Adams added to this collection to create a stunning view of Yosemite in all its majesty.\u003cbr\u003eThis group of thirty photographs, the Yosemite Special Edition Prints, forms the core of this essential volume. These luminous images of Yosemite's unique rock formations, waterfalls, meadows, trees, and other intimate details are among the most distinctive of Adams' career. Today, as America's public lands are threatened as never before, these works of art are more potent and relevant than ever.\u003cbr\u003eIntroduced by Pete Souza, and with an essay by Adams' darkroom assistant Alan Ross, \u003ci\u003eAnsel Adams' Yosemite \u003c\/i\u003eis a powerful continuation of Adams' artistic and political legacy, and an urgently necessary statement at a perilous moment for the American earth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ansel Adams\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/29\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780316456128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 10.20w x 0.80d","brand":"Ansel Adams","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36636279832732,"sku":"9780316456128","price":38.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_acb01ea2-7c1c-45dd-8764-da6fe58ef914.jpg?v=1603841468","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/ansel-adams-yosemite-the-special-edition-prints-9780316456128","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
