Ansel Adams pictures and words

The NYT did a piece interviewing Ansel's assistant from the 1970s, talking about how he did some of his most famous shots and what he did when he wasn't shooting. I really love these pictures and hearing stories from someone who knew him them is pretty sweet too. Those of you SF people are pretty lucky to be close to this landscape, apparently there are people who set out to recreate some of his most famous shots in the park to varying degrees of success.
