Sorry for my bad English.
Please don’t get me wrong. I’m not comparing you or mine work to F 64 group.
My point is that is good to look at masters’ work and history, because those who don't know history are destined to repeat it.

A bit silly to only look at a certain group and then make that into how things are, though. Don't see anyway why Ansel Adams would be special, there are many photographers that are much more important or better... just not in the USA.
There are very good photographers that at times make use of shallow DOF, and there are very good photographers that always use s huge DOF. There are very good photographers that use 135 format, there are very good photographers that use large formats.
My point is and was, the smaller the sensor, the more restricted one id in creative possibilities. Just that.
I have no admiration for Ansel Adams, his work does nothing to me.
