No comments for me. With a score as low as this, surely that's a rarity! |
Still no comments *sigh*

Wrong, but he preferred b&w for several reasons. (I understand the sarcasm of your rhetorical question.)
"...Although he claimed he did not like color photography, Ansel Adams nonetheless produced a highly accomplished if relatively small body of color work..... These scintillating images embody the same refined detail and delicacy of light seen in Adams's black-and-white photographs. In fact, the subtleties of light so often overwhelmed in color photography are clearly evident here. Characterized by restrained, at times understated hues, the photographs are consistently remarkable...."
"...Adams died in 1984, still planning a book on color photography, a topic that he had wrestled with since the 1950s and that gave him profound discomfort. He allowed that were he a young photographer in the 1980s, he'd work in color, yet in the last letter quoted herein he confessed, "I don't like photographic color. . . . It is not my dish of tea!" In other remarks, he was more analytic about color's challenges. Mostly, he regretted lack of control over intensity and hue, which afforded him no way to transform color as he transformed and exaggerated tonal values in black-and-white. For Adams, black-and-white was an abstract medium and color was inseparable from banal realism. He also sensed in himself a lack of "color imagination," the quality that distinguished the work of his colleague and friend Eliot Porter. He was right, yet he produced 3,000 color transparencies, most as tests for Kodak or for 1940s and 1950s commercial jobs...."

..... more tongue in cheek as you guessed. I have his books as I love his work. I myself can never even try to see what he was able to see. Thanks, this info is what I hope everyone reads.
