I started doing this several years ago by finding all the places Ansel
took photos and tried to take nice photos.  I have sold several hundred
dollars worth of prints of things like a color version of Yosemite Winter,
Half Dome (have to return on April 25 when he did it), and Lone Pine, CA.
Ansel himself dabbled in color image processing in the latter part of
his life when he visited JPL.  He left a nice copy of Moon and Half Dome
in the 3rd floor of the building I worked in.  The irony is that Ansel
probably would not have objected to people experimenting with his
prints.  I don't know about B&W films.
