Hi!

I did a group picture of a family I have known for about 30 years last night. Roy is one of the people who more or less mentored me into making quality pictures. We would go out and shoot the same locations with each other, sometimes shooting every day for weeks on end, then dissapearing into the darkroom for several hours and later meeting for coffee and comparing contact sheets and work prints. He got me involved in bothe medium format and large format cameras, and in fact, my B&J view camera came from him, as did the 4x5 enlarger I had been using up until I shut my darkroom down three years ago.

Quickie grayscale conversion then some levels adjusting was done.

Meet Roy.

I can easily imagine him pronouncing in Qui Gon kind of voice - "Be mindful of the light, my young apprentice"...

You did it excellently, Bill.

Boris
