Thanks for the reminder, Brian. Have been meaning to have a look. Is the
lighting ok? The Maritime sometimes is a little dark

G'day all
My wife and I are both emerging from 'The Lost Weekend' having lunched
on what we suspect was a dubious chicken (aka a crook chook) last
Friday. It's at times like this that a house needs more than one
bathroom...
However, before our date with the drumsticks of doom we went along to
the exhibition 'Ansel Adams - Photography from the Mountains to the
Sea', which is currently on at the Australian National Maritime Museum
in Sydney. The link between the exhibition and the maritime theme of
the Museum is a bit tenuous but I'm not complaining.
There are over 70 prints on display most, if not all, by Adams
himself. They are both impressive and inspiring - certainly to my
untutored eye. It's quite informative to compare the density and tonal
range of many of the prints with the lack of those characters in some
of the reproductions in the exhibition catalog.
Many of the images were photographed in Yosemite National Park, which
we had the great privilege of visiting just a couple of months ago.

The exhibition runs until 8 December 2013.
