BTW: In his will, Ansel Adams specifically stated that the university to which he was bequeathing his negatives *must* permit students to make prints from them. I really like that attitude. He didn't want his stuff locked away in a vault, but wanted to see it used further the education of future generations of photographers. (I suspect he also wanted them to find out there's a lot more to making a fine photo graph than getting your tripod feet set up in the right holes!) -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
