National Geographic Live! Revisits the Ansel Adams Wilderness

In this episode of National Geographic Live! Peter Essick talks about the journey of creating his new book, The Ansel Adams Wilderness, and what it's like to pay tribute to (and follow in the tripod holes of) perhaps the greatest nature photographer to walk the planet. The work interprets the influence of Adams' work for a digital age, capturing the Sierra Nevada wilderness in a manner that can only be described as timeless.

Peter Essick has been named one of the top 40 nature photographers in the world by Outdoor Photography Magazine. He has photographed stories for National Geographic for over 25 years, all over the world - taking him from Antarctica to the Arctic Circle. He resides in Atlanta, Georgia with his family.
