Portlanders: Please don't miss the opportunity to see the work of legendary photographer Ansel Adams, now showing through November 27, 2010 at Charles A. Hartman Fine Art. Snow flurries are expected in Portland this weekend, so I felt compelled to share this photograph, Clearing Winter Storm, Yosemite National Park, California with you. Just wait until you view it in person - the prints look incredible. Here is a little more information from the gallery's website:

Charles A. Hartman Fine Art is pleased to present Ansel Adams: Photographs 1920s - 1960s, an exciting selection of rare original prints by the American master. Focusing on the heart of Adams' rich career, this selection of photographs features many of Adams' famous classic images as well as lesser known gems that serve both to contextualize and inform our understanding of the depth of Adams' oeuvre. The exhibition includes vintage contact prints as well as later enlargements, presenting the viewer with a survey of the evolution of Adams' vision both in the making of photographs and the interpretation of his negatives. This is a unique opportunity to see and acquire original prints by this tremendously important photographer.
