Ansel Adams photographed The United States only and mostly stayed on the west coast.  The mountains which you see very often in his pictures made the perfect landscape.

Peter Lik

Peter Lik travelled back to The United States later in his career to create an exhibit on the Americas and this journey greatly changed the way his photos are to this day and his technique has improved greatly.

"America is the most beautiful place on earth.  The landscapes in America are miles and miles long, unlike anything else in this world!"- Peter Lik
