rodeo_joe1 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Silverback would be quite photo-related, but wrong species. Aunty Halation? Or Ann T. Halation? Masky - as in orange mask...y? Outan About - with a camera? Sprocket? Foggy? Kodelia? Tina - short for Retina? Foxy Talbot? Lizzie? - After Elizabeth Siddall, auburn-haired muse of Dante Gabriel Rosetti and Millais. Also photographed by Julia Margaret Cameron, I believe. Too obscure maybe? Dodgy? Burny? Gumby? - Gum arabic prints are orange in colour. Sepia? I'm all out of suggestions now.

charles_escott_new Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Thank you Ms. Lomo, this is a great honour and only the second time in my life I have won anything. The other being the three legged race at junior school where they tied me to the biggest girl and she carried me to victory with me hanging on for dear life. As I live in the English countryside please select an American friend for the prize. God bless, Charles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincent Peri Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 Hi Charles, Since you're in England and I can't ship there, I decided to make a donation to Macmillan Cancer Support, a popular charity in London. Thanks for entering and winning. Vincent Hmm... that's only Vincent's 3rd good deed EVER... http://bayouline.com/o2.gif 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
