    All you really need to know about what I look like. Anything that makes me look old and fat is obviously a distortion by the curved reflecter

    Vaughn, I know where you shot this! Great portrait! In Carbon none the less.

    Jim, I know you think you know, but I think not

    It was taken near the trail to Lower Yosemite Falls on a trip prior to our get-together earlier this year.

    But then, maybe you knew that and I don't realize it...

    One thing fun about single transfer carbon prints is that when the image is reversed -- the subject of a portrait often thinks the image looks just like them -- since it looks the same as they see in a mirror (faces are rarely perfectly symmetrical.)

    Vaughn, you are right. It looked familiar because I took a short hike up the trail from camp 4 when I was there.

    The first one is a tintype and the second was shot by Dan Winters when I was helping him in Nashville.
