"Conversations with Ansel Adams"

[sun of sand]

I was searching Isopan F film last night
Why I have no clue

Found an interview and thought OK ...
Well, it's lengthy
I read before going to bed for maybe an hour and only got 1/6 of the way through
I was seeing double by then


in depth -from his POV
says some things in a way that seems to go against some of what I had been led into believing reading from other sources


His piano life
Inspirations
History
Aesthetics
Polaroid
Materials
Everything ..ands that's in just the first 1/6

Well known and heard before by those that look for this stuff on Ansel but
for those just getting into the stuff I thought I'd post the link








was wondering if there is a site anywhere with Adams reprints of Matthew Bradys as well as the other photogs -as mentioned in the transcript- work
I can't find anything

Sounds interesting... maybe it's just me but I don't see a link...? Thanks. Shawn

This will be interesting reading and something that without this link I'd have never discovered. It much be a small books worth of material.

Many thanks for posting

Thanks for the link - and yes, as you have discovered, there is much undeserved myth-information about an important artist whose important contributions to photography need neither embellishment nor scorn by the opinion of others who have not researched either the autobiographical or first hand accounts.
