Response to Zone System

I originally followed Ricardo's advice and read The Negative at least a dozen times. I had practiced the zone system for a couple of years and then I attended an Ansel Adams Workshop. I thought that they would be impressed with my mastery of technique. One of the first comments made when I was showing my photos there was "I would benefit a great deal IF I learned the zone system". At the end of that week, I knew what the zone system was about. Reading about it without feedback is difficult. I would reccomend Al Weber, 145 Boyd Way, Carmel, CA 93923 for a workshop. He taught at the Ansel Adams Workshop longer than any living person and you will come away with a much different look at technique than you ever thought possible. Write me if you want his email address.
