Ansel's BW images stand out as a result of his darkroom mastery. His
printing often involved dozens of dodge and burn steps using masks.
That kind of control would be near impossible in optical color
printing where exposure levels affect colors differently. Converting
his color prints to BW couldn't possibly produce results in any way
comparable to his own BW prints.
Perhaps even more so, as I'm pretty sure most of his color photography
was made with Kodachrome. Anyone know of work Adams did with color
negative film?
I don't, but if there is, I'd appreciate a link.
Google "Ansel Adams Polaroid" for a good time.
It's, of course, not color negative, and much of his BW stuff was shot
on Polaroid film. I should probably pay attention to what I'm reading.
