(it was end of the sitting, she was tired, but braved one more shot.. a bit different pose than i tried her to do, but oh well..)
Thanks, Bill. It is a bit sad to think that since Karen had no kids, and since we've lost touch with her husband, there is no one to whom I can give these images who would really appreciate them in a personal way, except maybe her sister or parents, but they have copies already. Part of the joy of getting around to scanning older photos with people in them is passing them along to the folks involved who usually get a kick out of seeing themselves 10, 15, 20 years ago. I'm not on Facebook, but I wonder how this new interconnected repository of images will change how people relate to photos of the past. There will be less of a sense of surprise and discovery--finding an old shoebox full of photos in the attic, for instance--if the photos from your college days remain accessible from your page and your friends' pages now and into the future.

I think there is going to be a great sense of loss for some people who realize a few years in the future that none of their digital photos are available, or possibly they are only alive as a 0.2mp file from whatever Facebook becomes.
One of the reasons I enjoy shooting Fujiroids is to give them away, an instant print, something few people these days get.
Fabulous. You can see the weariness on her face. (It's not apparent that its weariness from the shoot) It make for a very emotional photo.
Great Sergei love the light
here is my first 8x10 outdoor still practicing :-) power packard fast triggered
Nice use of vines to frame. Thats it, man. Now you will be sucked into 8x10 ) No way back )
Self-portrait.
Well....it was my idea to do it, but I had to have my wife focus, insert the film holder, pull the slide and make the exposure. Can that still be called a self-portrait?
