Ashley, Motion of Light in Water - Lehigh University Art Galleries

9/9 Blog Post

This Untitled photograph by Ansel Adams in 1930, is a gelatin silver print. I really like how calm this picture is. Everything looks so at peace and your eye is drawn to the one little water droplet that made motion in the water. I think this is a special picture because it represents the ripple effect. No matter how calm anything is, if one thing changes, everything can be effected. I like the way you can see the trees reflected in the water. Another thing that makes this picture interesting is the fact that it is in black and white with a little tint of green. This green represents the trees and nature in the picture and pulls the whole thing together.
