Share your best technique for turning your landscape photos (or others) into Ansel Adams' style. Here's one:
1. Open your image in Photoshop (I'm using CS, your mileage may vary)
2. Image menu --> Adjustments --> Channel Mixer
3. Check the "monochrome" checkbox at the bottom of the dialog.
4. Set the sliders as follows:
Red: 160
Green: 140
Blue: -200
Note that the blue slider is set to a negative value
That's it. You can play with the sliders to different settings but make sure the total is always 100%.
For an image with clouds in a blue sky, the result can be quite striking.

| Image Google 'Ansel Adams', right click, 'Save image as', start PS, open image, flip horizontally, resize, save as 'While walking the dog this morning.jpg', submit. Hide. Change name, grow/shave beard (ladies too), sell camera, start new hobby. |

You forgot:
Clone in a jet in the sky. That will make it modern and no one will question it.
