Ansel Adams and David Paul Bayles had very different views on the art of capturing landscape photography. Both Adams and Bayles photographed outdoor landscapes that focused on capturing a certain image and feeling. But the photographers shared many more differences than similarities in their pictures. Ansel Adams seemed to focus on mountains and cliffs, and also bodies of water. Adams pictures are peaceful and calm. Adams captures the serenity and beauty of the earth. On the other hand Bayles main focus is on trees and other such plants. Bayles style of photography is focused on capturing the quirkiness and humor of the world. Bayles photos are of odd, uncommon landscapes. Bayles photos contain spunk and randomness that is portrayed in the uncommon landscapes that he photographs. Bayles photographs are humorous and make you smile and wonder. I feel that Adams main purpose in landscape photography was to show the beauty of the earth and the world around him. On the other hand, I believe Bayles purpose in landscape photography was totally opposite of Adams. Bayles photographs are spunky and out of the ordinary. Bayles wanted his photographs to show the un-normal landscapes and sights found in the world. I believe that both Ansel Adams and David Paul Bayles photographs are special and beautiful, just in different ways. Both artists’ styles of photography are useful when capturing photographs of the landscapes around us.
