A great collection of images November 23, 2005 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This book is a compilation of images that Ansel compiled into portfolios, along with a brief introduction by the author. Some of these images can be found in other compilations, but are more powerful here because they are grouped as Ansel chose to group them. Each of his portfolios is well printed, for a book printing of a silver image that is, and his statement is included for each, just as in the actual editions. Overall, this is a nice compilation of images, and an opportunity to see them grouped as the photographer felt they should be. There are few enough words, with the major focus being on the main subject, his images. This is a great addition to the library of any Adams fan, but is not an indispensable tome.
