Back in the "Fun" days.....

Dennis, that is so cool....glad you were able to find it and share it with us. I can't even fathom taking pix like this! When was this, btw?

I'd just drove my new 442 Olds Cutless to Ft. Monmouth NJ and this was one of the first days we had our cameras out... Notice how level the camera was on that sturdy tripod...

This is awesome! I'd frame that sucker!

You look good with clothes ON too!!

and just loves it.... First time I've restored one of my old ones....Thanks

Dennis, this is classic. Probably more fun to look back on than actually manage at the time. It's fun to look at old pictures - especially ones like this.

Regards, Oliver

and to remember what you learned is much better... Thanks Oliver...

Is this a photo of a photo? I'd say so because of the reflections on the left side. Anyhow the original is a really cool well done shot.

Wish I had a true copy platfom. I've got a buch I'd like to shoot.

:) indeed this is priceless....

just wish I had that camera... even as beat up as it was...

MY HUBBY still wear's his ;)

 

I love the Jacket! AND your beard is not there. Your face is nice and smooth!

 

I wonder what kind of ccamera took YOUR picture :)

 

I think it is so cool how you have that little bitty white spot right on your nose. SO. Do I get to work this picture?

 

Nah, it looks so cool exactly the way it is. If it was you are your wife maybe. This is so cool as truthfully I don't think I knew camera's looked like that back when I was five.

 

WOW!

somewhere in the 1950 maybe earlier time... But what the army trained with. Then at Ft Campbell, got to use Nikons, Mamaya and nicer 4x5's... Really makes using a digital now days so easy a cave man can do it.....

?

I love shooting the 4x5... Like processing the film even better...

Wow, 1974 - that was the year I got married the first time at age 17! Seems like forever ago. I don't think I want to dig out any of MY oldies, but this one is very cool, Dennis!

to relive those days and know what I know now....

Dennis, in 1974 I was 5. This was about the time I started playing with my parent's TLR! Great memories here.

You have some nice cameras John.... Take care of them...

I love it when people post retro photos of themselves...I can't make out what type of camera that is...some kind of TLR?
