About this ebook

Anchored by a detailed discussion of Ansel Adams' Zone System and his seminal concept of visualization, The Negative covers artificial and natural light, film and exposure, darkroom equipment, and many more techniques important for any photographer.

Ansel Adams produced some of the 20th century's most iconic photographic images and helped nurture the art of photography through his creative innovations and peerless technical mastery.

The Negative—the second volume in Adams' celebrated series of books on photographic techniques—has taught generations of photographers how to use film and the film development process creatively. Examples of Adams' own work clarify the principles discussed. This classic handbook distills the knowledge gained through a lifetime in photography and remains as vital today as when it was first published.

Beautifully illustrated with photographs as well as instructive line drawings, this classic manual can dramatically improve your photography.
