Hi, Actually, Adams was looking forward to what he called "electronic" photography, and I'm sure he'd have developed some great techniques using Photoshop. The problem, as I see it, with a lot of the yahoos "developing" various techniques for photographers is that they, themselves, have never been photographers, or worked in a darkroom, or made their own prints. I'm not saying that's an absolutely necessary requirement, but it does seem an important consideration - at least for me.
The "Duke of Digital" has left out a very important step in the technique Dave referenced, and it will have a deleterious effect on the results.
