Here is a link to a video that I found interesting. A tour with Ansel Adams son Michael through Ansel's home and darkroom. http://www.silberstudios.tv/previous-shows/ansel-adams-home/

Matthew, interesting video. Is there any doubt that Ansel Adams would be a huge fan of Photoshop if he were alive today?

Thanks a bunch, Matthew, and I think Tom's right; Ansel Adams would be like a kid in a candy store with Photoshop, and no doubt would spend far less time in a dark room.

Thanks for posting Matt! Reminded me of all those many, many hours I used to spend in the darkroom back in the day dodging and burning...No doubt for sure that Ansel would have been a fan of Photoshop.

I agree with you all. No doubt Ansel would have loved photoshop. Post production is what he was so good at and made him famous. A computer would have kept him out of all those chemicals. Although it may have destroyed his eyes, but who knows really.
