Renowned as America''s pre-eminent black-and-white landscape
photographer, Ansel Adams began to photograph in color soon after
Kodachrome film was invented in the mid 1930s. He made nearly 3,500
color photographs, a small fraction of which were published for the
first time in the 1993 edition of ANSEL ADAMS IN COLOR. In
this newly revised and expanded edition, 20 unpublished photographs
have been added. New digital scanning and printing technologies
allow a more faithful representation of Adams''s color
photography.
