I saw John Szarkowski's "Ansel at 100" MOMA show not too long ago. HE seems
to have deliberately avoided making reference to the "Ansel as Calendar
Artist", featuring small works, and omitting the BIG Adams "trademark"
works. I just thought I would make mention of this.
BTW, if the MOMA show is any indication of the "art world's" opinion of
Adams, I far prefer the calendar stuff.
