Archival classic shot

This old barber shop was on Nevins Street, Brooklyn. I used a Nikonos II that I used when the weather was inclement. The lens was a Nikkor UW 35 mm mF 2.5 and naturally, the film was Tri-X.

Classic shot

I consider this to be my very first "good shot." It was made with a folding Kodak Retina with a Schneider lens and Kodachrome II. I had just returned from Europe where I hd taken some nice photos but on  this particilar one I attribute my beginning interest in photography. This was back in September of 1967, a long time ago.

Have a very happy Valentines Day


Le Musée D'Orsay

This wonderful museum was originally a railway station opened for the exposition of 1900. By 1939 it had become obsolete. In the early seventies it was to be demolished but better heads prevailed and it was converted into a superb exhibition space. It has the premiere impressionistic collection in Paris or anywhere. I always vist it when I go to Paris. Not to be missed.
