    I had to search for this, and finally found my copy of "Ansel Adams in
Color" edited by Harry M. Callahan (Little, Brown and Co., 1993, ISBN
0-8212-1980-4).  Adams began using Kodachrome shortly after is was invented
in the mid-1930s, and this collection of landscape photos is every bit as
captivating as is his B&W work.  The photo of El Capitan, taken in 1952
(opposite page 9) is a wonderful study of colour, form, and balance.
