    Just a short article about Ansel Adams photographing in Yosemite National Park. Just posting it for those whom may be interested. The interactive feature is very interesting and not very long, worth a look for any photographer.

    Yes that was interesting to hear from his assistant as his photos were shown. Thanks for posting.

    Although I don't take loads of landscapes, I love Adams's work and have been lucky enough to see some prints up close in various New York galleries. They are indeed amazingly rich with detail and PERFECTLY printed.
    Hey the dude co-invented the zone system and worked for hours at a time just to get 1 or 2 good prints.

    Good link...

    especially with the narration...

    I am wondering what he used.... a D300? or MarkIII? ... how was he able to get this technology so early to make these great pictures?
