In 1941, the National Park Service hired Ansel Adams to photograph national parks and other western landscapes, with the goal of creating murals for the Department of the Interior building. Although this project was canceled in 1942 at the beginning of World War II, Adams compiled 226 stunning photographs during his work for the government. 12 of these images are presented in this 2016 mini wall calendar. Each photo was meticulously prepared by photographer and imaging expert Grant Collier in an effort to do justice to Adams' images.
