without color

having fun with Picasa photo editor - sometimes color is overrated - channeling a little Ansel Adams with last year's vacation photos...

Ansel Easton Adams was an American photographer and environmentalist best known for his black-and-white landscape photographs of the American West.

"When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence." ~Ansel Adams

“I hope that my work will encourage self expression in others and stimulate the search for beauty and creative excitement in the great world around us.” ~Ansel Adams
