The Scotch Tape turned yellow and fell apart! I also plowed through all the Ansel Adams Zone stuff. But the best Zonal mindsets I've received were from Arnold Gassan's Handbook for contemporary photography Distributed by Light impressions. It was written in '72, its third printing. It's the best darkroom working book I've ever read. Minor White spaces even me out. He started a gallery here in Portland Oregon called the Camerawork Gallery that I've had two shows in over that past twenty years. Mark :-) Rabiner
