443. Monolith, the Face of Half Dome, Yosemite National Park, California Ansel Easton Adams - 1927 - Met

Adams is one of our most iconic photographers. If you didn't know, you've never been to Yosemite. They bomb you with his legacy upon visitation. It's for good reason though, because Yosemite's gorgeous, and I can't imagine a greater, grittier, deeper distillation of Yosemite. Same for Taos, or any other landscape Adams focused on.
