That has to be the best $45 investment ever! ;

Interesting.

Besides, I was wondering about that, because....Ansel's magic happened in the darkroom, not in the field.

The blog post from the family is pretty interesting. ; Hopefully the guy who bought the negatives will do more testing and come to a more solid conclusion.

A woman thinks the negatives are the work of "Uncle Earl".

Update: ; the Ansel Adams Trust is suing the guy who owns the negatives to force him to stop using the Ansel Adams name on all prints not authorized by the trust:
