I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m fascinated by this controversy about the purported Ansel Adams Yosemite glass negatives purchased for $45 dollars and now supposedly worth $200 million.
The artist’s grandson says they’re fakes and they’re not worth that much money anyway, even though they’ve been authenticated by a panel of experts. This sounds like sour grapes to me and reminds me of Dave’s skepticism in regard to relatives reaping protfits from dead artists’ work.
I think that if these negative yield prints as beautiful as the ones done by Adams, it doesn’t really matter who did them.

It's a great way to avoid shipping and VAT charges for international shipments. You get the file and have it printed.
That's right, $1 per file if you purchase the package.
Love this! The tones, the composition, the whole bloody thing!
