Well im not to sure who took the pic but i think it was taken to captrue the queser/waterfall wut ever it is, and its purpose was to show the ppl wut some might think is a beautiful sighting.
Ansel Adams is the photographer who tool this picture, He was hired by the Sierra Club to create a book of photographs of American parks. The book was distributed to Congress, and successfully convinced its members to pass legislation that would preserve American parks by creating a number of national parks and preserves.
