Ansel Easton Adams was born in the Western Addition of San Francisco, California on  February 20, 1902  and was an American photographer and environmentalist who is known widely for his black and white landscape photographs of the American West, especially Yosemite National Park where he first visited  in 1916 with his family. as written by Outdoor Photographer. Werner. February 3, 2009. He wrote of his first view of the valley: "the splendour of Yosemite burst upon us and it was glorious.... One wonder after another descended upon us.... There was light everywhere.... A new era began for me." His father gave him his first camera during that stay, a Kodak Brownie box camera, and he took his first photographs with his "usual hyperactive enthusiasm”. As written in Aitken, R. G. (1951).Astronomical Society of the Pacific, Vol. 63 No. 375. San Francisco, CA: Astronomical Society of the Pacific.
In 1927 aged 25 he produced his first portfolio in his new style Parmelian Prints of the High Sierras, which included his famous image Monolith, the Face of Half Dome, taken with his Korona view camera using glass plates and a dark red filter (to heighten the tonal contrasts). On that excursion, he had only one plate left, and he "visualised" the effect of the blackened sky before risking the last shot. He later said, "I had been able to realise a desired image: not the way the subject appeared in reality but how it felt to me and how it must appear in the finished print". In April 1927, he wrote, "My photographs have now reached a stage when they are worthy of the world's critical examination. as written in Adams, Ansel (1985). Ansel Adams, an Autobiography. Boston: Little, Brown.
I have suddenly come upon a new style which I believe will place my work equal to anything of its kind.” he received a number of awards during his lifetime and posthumously, and there have been a few awards named for him and was inducted into the California Hall of Fame by California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and First Lady Maria Shriver in 2007. as stated by
California Museum (2007).
Some of his notable works  are {Monolith, The Face of Half Dome, Yosemite National Park, 1927, Rose and Driftwood, San Francisco, California, 1932,Georgia O'Keeffe and Orville Cox, Canyon de Chelly National Monument, 1937, Clearing Winter Storm, Yosemite National Park, 1940, Moon and Half Dome, Yosemite National Park, California, 1960.}
and photographic  books are {Taos Pueblo, 1930,Sierra Nevada the John Muir Trail, 1938,The Islands of Hawaii, 1958}. Ansel Easton Adams died on April 22, 1984 at age of 82.
In my own words he is one out of my top 3 photographers of all time, i like the way he uses black and white in his photographs to show how beautiful things are even tho we see in colour.

Dorothea Lange was born Dorothea Margaretta Nutzhorn  on 26, 1895  but  she later dropped her middle name and assumed her mother's maiden name after her father abandoned the family when she was 12 years old, one of two traumatic incidents early in her life and also when she was 7, as noted by  A&E Television Network. November 16, 2016. Dorothea contracted polio,
Which left her right leg and foot noticeably weakened. Later, however, she’d feel almost appreciative of the effects the illness had on her life. Which according to her was the “most important thing that happened to me, and formed me, guided me, instructed me, helped me and humiliated me,” as written in Lurie, Maxine N. and Mappen, Marc. Encyclopedia of New Jersey. 2004, page 455. Her life into photography compared to some of my favorite is different as she graduated from the Wadleigh High School for Girls and was educated in photography at Columbia University in New York City, in a class taught by Clarence H. White.
She was informally apprenticed to several New York photography studios, including that of the famed Arnold Genthe. In 1918, she left New York with a female friend to travel the world, but was forced to end the trip in San Francisco due to a robbery and settled there, working as a photo finisher and by the following year she had opened a successful portrait studio as printed in Vaughn, Stephen L. Encyclopedia of American Journalism. 2008, page 254 and also backed by The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).
She was a documentary photographer and photojournaliste, whose portraits of displaced farmers during the Great Depression greatly influenced later documentary photography. During the Great Depression, Dorothea Lange photographed the unemployed men who wandered the streets. Her photographs of migrant workers were often presented with captions featuring the words of the workers themselves, as noted by A&E Television Network. November 16, 2016.
“This body of work included Lange’s most well-known portrait, “Migrant Mother,” an iconic image from this period that gently and beautifully captured the hardship and pain of what so many Americans were experiencing.” As her friend and spouse Paul Taylor, a university professor and labor economist said she “was often to just saunter up to the people and look around, and then when she saw something that she wanted to photograph, to quietly take her camera, look at it, and if she saw that they objected, why, she would close it up and not take a photograph, or perhaps she would wait until… they were used to her.” Lange’s first exhibition, held in 1934, established her reputation as a skilled documentary photographer. In 1940, she received the Guggenheim Fellowship. As researched by A&E Television Network. November 16, 2016.
She was hired by the Office of War Information to photograph the internment of Japanese Americans. In 1945, she was employed again by the OWI, this time to document the San Francisco conference that created the United Nations. While she battled increasing health problems over the last two decades of her life, Lange stayed active. She co-founded Aperture, a small publishing house that produces a periodical and high-end photography books. She took on assignments for Life magazine, traveling through Utah, Ireland and Death Valley.
Dorothea sometimes grew frustrated that her work didn’t always provoke society to correct the injustices she documented, her photography has endured and greatly influenced generations of documentary photographers.
Dorothea Lange passed away from esophageal cancer in October 1965. As noted by A&E Television Network. November 16, 2016.
In my own thoughts she is one of my few favorite photographers, am mostly moved by her way of capturing her subjects and making the open up to her in an extraordinary way that make her images more intimate like you know the people or understand what they were going through and what they might be thinking. Especially the way i felt when i was the actual picture of the “migrant mother”.
