“There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer.” – Ansel Adams

When photographer Ansel Adams looked through his camera lens, he saw more than rocks, trees, and rivers. He saw art. Hues of wildness surfaced in this great American photographer's stunning black-and-white prints. For much of his life, Yosemite National Park was Adams' chief source of inspiration.

Born on February 20, 1902, his legacy includes helping to elevate photography to an art comparable with painting and music, and equally capable of expressing emotion and beauty. Learn more about Adams’ time at Yosemite at https://www.nps.gov/yose/learn/historyculture/ansel-adams.htm

It's an honor to share this video with you because I am such a fun of Ben's design work and all the sounds of the incredible musicians on this track. Stream it for free on Spotify and the other usual suspects, or be adventurous (like true music supporters) and pay ANY price for it at YoursLikeTheOutdoors.com. Or share it if you dig it, that really helps spread the love. I hope this video makes you smile either way. -Ryan

Family fun on the beach in Washington, July 2018

The smiles I got to share with family and friends were top notch in 2018 yet it was also a busy year with too much time working on the road. I didn't get a chance to share many photos -- so I hope to sneak a few in before December slips away. I hope you had a great year, and happy holidays to you! ❄️🍻🎄❣️ -Ryan

It's always fun to get the quadcopter out! We got a babysitter... I mean a 401k... I mean a basketball hoop for the boys for spring break. These spring storms have us re-chalking our masterpiece court lines often, but that’s okay. 🏀❣️🤙🏻

Since it’s 2018 I figured I’d better make a separate Instagram page for my photos (vs. ).

I’ll try to post photos here and there at https://www.instagram.com/kirkpatrickgraphics, thanks for taking a peek when you have a chance!

I guess no better debut than to post some photos of my sunrise stroll with Vermillion (party of 3).

The moon, the sunrise, and Vermillion party of 3. Thanks for the sunrise stroll Rob, Angie, and David! 😍🍼🌛🌞

As the 1st day of March went to sleep, the night with a full moon and stars came out to play on Rabbit Ears Pass.

I fell in love with Rabbit Ears as a kid with my family in Steamboat Dreamboat.

Thanks to my buddy Yoshi for coming along on the all night adventure after an exhausting yet exhilarating Feb of guiding ski trips, music, and family fun. ❄️🍻⛷️📸

Oops. I guess I said too many nice things about Texas.
The waves got bigger in Galveston as we were chased out of town by a winter storm and after multiple airport cancellations I guess we live here in TX now.
We took cover in yet another hotel only to learn that now they say Thursday is the earliest departure. We are across from Space Center Houston -- maybe we'll catch a rocket home. 😴
