Bill D -

Ansel's biggest problem with "playing with Photoshop" to see if it would help might have been the lack of good scanners to get his images into digital format. In the era when he did most of his work, 300 dpi was considered a pretty good scan.

One does wonder why he didn't "fix it once" and make a negative from the good version. He could have done that in the wet lab - and certainly knew how.
