The process of Hawking evaporation, shadows and thermal fluctuations are investigated within the fabric of f(R) AdS Black Hole (BH). Specifically, the Hawking evaporation process is analyzed numerically using the Stefan-Boltzmann law. The results indicate that the BH lifetime is always infinite, which means the BH becomes a remnant in the late time. Additionally, the evaporation rate depends on the AdS radius and coupling parameters. We further examined the visual properties of BH shadows observed for various values of the two parameters. The results reveal that the BH shadow radius decreases with ψ0, while it increases with λ. Consequently, we further investigate the infalling accretion matter in the vicinity of BHs. The results depict that while variations in relevant parameters do influence the central region, the important factor is the change in optical appearance of the bright photon ring, which is exhibited at the position of the photon sphere. Next, we discuss many thermodynamical quantities, such as temperature, entropy, Helmholtz free energy, internal energy, corrected pressure, enthalpy, Gibbs free energy and specific heat and interpret how the variations in λ and ψ0 impact on the stability and phase transitions of the AdS BHs.
