(male professor) The reading's arguments that the photographic negatives were created by Ansel Adams are not convincing. It's true that the negatives have some similarities to Adams'work, but there are explanations for those similarities.
First, the leaning pine tree appears in one of the negatives, well, this tree is not just a random tree that Ansel Adams took a liking to. In fact, this tree is famous landmark in Yosemite National Park. The park has hundreds of thousands of visitors in the 1920s. And the pine tree captured on the negative happened to be one of its most visited sites. Because the tree was such a popular symbol of Yosemite, a lot of photographers, not just Ansel Adams, are known to have taken photographs of it.
Second, the handwriting on the envelopes, as you read, some of the envelopes have a place name written on them, for example, names of famous Yosemite landmarks. But the person who wrote the names of the locations on the envelopes did not spell some of them correctly. Now, Virginia Adams grew up in Yosemite. Her father was an artist who had an art studio in the park, so she knew Yosemite very well. Does it really make sense that she would misspell place names familiar to her since childhood?
Third, about fire damage to the negatives, the process that photographers use to create negatives in the 1920s was dangerous. It involved using highly flammable chemicals. And these chemicals could cause a fire to start very easily. So a fire in a photographer's studio was not an unusual occurrence in those days and a great number of professional photographers had work that was damaged by fire.
The article states that negatives, actual images on film or glass, had been found in envelopes are related to Ansel Adams, a most famous photographer in the USA, and provides three reasons to support. However, the professor explains that these images might be similar to Adams' work but these reasons are not convincing and refutes each of the authour's reasons.
First, the reading claims that an specific tree's image is known taked by Adams. The professor opposes this point by saying that the tree is a popular tree and located in natioal park in the United States. while the park has many visitors, alot of photographers could take photo of the tree.
Second, the article posits that the envelopes had a handwritten mark resembled Adams' wife. In contrast, the professor says that Adams' wife was a artist and should not write a mark with misspelling words.
Third, the reading says that fire had destroyed or damaged many of Adams' work and a number of the negatives had a sign of fire. The professor cast doubt on this point by explaining that fire in artists' houses is not unusual thing because in many atrists houses there are chemical substances which strat fire easily. He also states that the negatives might is related to the other photographer who his house experienced fire and his work damaged by fire.
