Story Behind the Image

Once Ansel's request had been taken care of, I was free to head out with my cameras and some friends from the Gallery. We headed to Mirror Lake, where I spent some time working with my 4x5 camera on an ice pattern in the lake. I made a couple of images before we headed back to Yosemite Village.

After lunch, our group drove down to El Portal to help a Gallery employee move some furniture up to a house in the Valley. We had three vans full of furniture. We were just about back to the Village when we all pulled over to gasp at the magical landscape with sun and clouds to the west of Sentinel Rock and Church Meadow. I happened to be the only one of our group of photographers who had pulled his camera gear out and put it ON TOP of all the furniture. I got busy and this is the resulting image. What a great day of photography.

About Artist

Alan Ross is an internationally respected master photographer and educator who expresses his unique vision with a combination of traditional photographic craftsmanship and today’s technology. His tonally exquisite photographs take the viewer from the grandeur of the American West to the changing faces of China to abstractions created by the relationship of objects both natural and man-made. Each image is a purely visual and emotional response to the subject matter, executed with an exacting eye and superior technical artistry.

Alan honed his vision and technique while working side-by-side with Ansel Adams in the field and in the darkroom as his full-time photographic assistant. He was integrally involved with Adams’ books, teaching in Yosemite, and production of fine prints. Alan was personally selected by Adams to be the exclusive printer of the Yosemite Special Edition Photograph negatives, an assignment he has enjoyed for nearly 50 years. As such, Alan knows Ansel’s approach and technique perhaps better than any other photographer today.
