W/NW: Favorite old negatives

OK, everybody has at least one. Those favorite negatives (or slides, or digital shots or

whatever). You may not know why, but they stand out to you.<p>

This is one of mine.... I have certainly taken "technically" better shots, but this one

stands out to me. I had no idea who these two were when I took it, and didn't think

much about it until I processed the negs. When I saw it on the contact sheet I had to

print it right away, and I've printed it many times since.<p><div>00AxMy-21622884.jpg.c40786c98b10178ca02bfdab91889816.jpg</div>

Here are two photos that my father took. The first is of my mother, back in '73 before my

sister and I were born. The second is of me when I was three, in 1981. The first was a

spotmatic, and the second was probably an AE-1 if it wasn't the spotmatic. Kodachrome

keeps amazingly well doesn't it? It is frightening to see my mother that young with that

level of clarity...<P><img src="http://www.uweb.ucsb.edu/~srichardson/mom-
