Some of Ansel Adams' negatives were printed over many years and over time he would interpret the negative differently to bring out the clouds etc differently and to also exploit the changes in the enlarging papers and chemicals.
I have seen many different prints of Moonrise, Hernandez that Adams has printed over the years and I have also seen his dodging notes that directed him to dodge various parts of the scene. In some his prints the clouds in the sky are very visible, in other the sky is a very constant black.
With digital images one can create different interpretations of an image according to how one feels and what one wants to achieve.
