"Oak Tree" from legendary landscape photographer, Ansel Adams, has captured a veritable winter wonderland. This timeless black and white photograph was captured during a snowstorm in Yosemite National Park way back in 1948 and, like all the work of this American photographer, it whispers rather than shouts. The bare branches and twigs of the tree are so thick with snow that you could be forgiven for thinking it's in full leaf while, in stark contrast, the surrounding air is misty and ethereal with falling snow. This marvelous nature study brings a touch of frosted magic wherever it is displayed.
Ansel Adams is one of the most celebrated American nature photographers of all time, and when you see "Oak Tree" for real, it's not difficult to understand why. This beautifully ethereal black and white photograph of an ice-laced oak tree that stands sentinel in the snowy landscape will bring the beauty of the great American outdoors into your home.
If you appreciate the natural beauty of North America, you will be blown away by this visionary photographer and his work. Let "Oak Tree" stand on watch in your home.
