[Leica] Pre or Post???

[Jayanand Govindaraj]

Ric,
I agree with you 100%. The only change is that the tools differ!

I once saw a gallery exhibition in London featuring a dozen
interpretations of "Moonrise, Hernandez," printed by Ansel Adams himself
over the years. The last print was unrecognizable compared to the first. So
much for that!

IMHO, Ansel Adams would have been the most enthusiastic user of digital
capture and post processing ever. We should never forget that the greats of
that generation shot B&W film because that was all that was available to
them, not out of choice.

Cheers
Jayanand
