Des anyone still remember Progressive Labor?

This was a fringe group that had it's proverbial 15 minutes of fame in the seventies made up od misguided individuals who knew nothing about labor because they were all students. Probably they became Wall Street big shots or high potere attorneys making lots of money. These images were shot with a Leica M-4 with Ektachrome 100 that I used to buy in bulk rolls. The lens was that superb Summicron F 2. This was the best combination for street photography.

Vintage archival black and white

I shot countless rolls of black and white film, mainly Tri-X with my arsenal of cameras. These images are from Brooklyn Heights in the mid seventies that I recently scanned. There's a power and clarity in black and white that adds character to the appropriate scenes. It makes the images more graphic and that is what photography was really meant to be.
