As I have stated on a prior post, I cannot believe how superb GAF film was. Always ready to buck the trend I would always carry some GAF film, formerly ANSCO, in my bag. Many tears later, the colors are still very vivid but of a slightly different hue that the super popular Kodachrome. In those days different effects were gotten either via filters of films. I was loath to use anything in front of my lenses lest a masterpiece of a lens would be compromised by a filter. Well I am glad that I did shoot this memorable film. These shots date from 1973 and were originally shot at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.
Greetings, this blog is dedicated to my life in photography and my passion for good Italian food.. I want to make this a place to stop and relax. In the hope that this will provide some respite and peace. Thank you for visiting.
