Kind of reminds me of your "buddy", Augie Wren. There's something strangely compelling about this series. Hundreds of people passing by the same point (or points) in one evening, some 40 or 45 years ago. Some annoyed, some indifferent, some not even noticing the camera. I wonder how many of them are even alive anymore? I wonder who they were, who they became. To me, this is photography at it's best - examining the human condition. They may not be of the best quality, but they sure as hell speak to me. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
