I did not know Adams. I only met him once, and when I was too young to understand. However, I know a lot of folks who knew him well, including several who worked with and for him and others who took his workshops and/or were/are connected with the Ansel Adams Gallery.

I cannot presume to speak definitively for him, but I don\'t think he would be at all upset. He had his share of \"decisive moment\" photographs. For example, if you aren\'t already familiar with the tale, look up the story of how he made the exposure(s) for \"Moonlight, Hernandez...\" sometime. Or see one of my favorite Adams photographs, made with a handheld 35mm camera.

Thanks! I will do that. I think it was Weston who had some issues with CHB\'s comment\'s that some photographers work lacked social significance, unlike his own
