Through DPReview's newsletter, I found this video about the creation of Ansel Adam's Moon over Hernandez photograph:
It describes the circumstances of taking the image, but what I found particularly interesting was the difference between the image as captured on negative and the image as printed. (Frankly, if I had taken the original, I would have thought: "Well, this just didn't work out.")
Also fascinating is a printing "map" for the image that Ansel created so that he could reproduce the print as needed.
Cheers, Jock
