Nobody has ever been a greater source of inspiration in my photography than he was. I 've seen most of his work displayed in Europe and it still amazes me how fresh his tones were. Truly a great man!

On this subject Nik software mailed me:

Ansel Adams’ 110th Birthday
Nik Software marks the occasion with a 10 percent discount

Ansel Adams, the pioneer of “straight photography” is still considered as one of the most significant American photographers. The “zone system” developed by Adams was a ground-breaking step for black-and-white photography, since the degree of contrast was as close as possible to that of the actual scene. As such, Ansel was also instrumental in Nik Software development.

To celebrate his 110th birthday, we’re running a 10-day special offer of 10% off all Nik Software available from our online shop.

Maybe this is of use to someone on the forum.
