I still say 19th century. I recently saw a show of work from all over the world done in the late 1800's and those albumen prints were the equal of anything the F64 group or since has produced. Yes, the zone system gurus and that generation did do some refining here and there but I wouldn't call that a quantum leap into a new methodology beyond what was done over a hundred years ago. What set the Westons and Adams, Caponigro, and their followers apart from earlier work was not a technology advancement by any means but, a change in the way the technology was used to see things within the framework of 20th century painting (or an attempt to do someting that couldn't be accomplished by painting.) What is happening now is major technological innovation by comparison and will change everything, whether we like that or not. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > 20th I believe > > Richard > > --- > [This E-mail has been scanned for viruses but it is your responsibility > to maintain up to date anti virus software on the device that you are > currently using to read this email. ]
