- I just love black and white film photography. I wasn't familiar with Clyde Butcher before but I'm so glad to have discovered his work here on Squidoo. You're absolutely right about his work being as good as Ansel Adams if not better. Thanks to you and Clyde Butcher for an awesome visual experience.
