old faithful

 

The Texas Tech Museum has hosted a wonderful exhibit of Ansel Adams images.  Last night I attended a great lecture by Alan Ross, who served as Ansel's assistant for many years.  Alan shared intimate photographs of Ansel, little known portraits taken by Ansel, and stories of how iconic photographs were made.  As I saw Ansel's Old Faithful, I wondered what the pictures of Old Faithful I had taken last September would look like in black and white.  I had no dark room, just Photoshop, but I was pleasantly surprised at the result.
