"Well, Porter was very painterly in his rendering of nature in color - and very precise with his dye transfer prints... it is that kinship to your stuff that I see... odd that you didn't know him. "
There's a name I am very familiar with. I met him on a couple trips he made to Antarctica to photograph various areas. I was the Photo Officer in the Navy Support Squadron down there (75-77) and had the pleasure of going around with him as well as having him in the lab for wine, cheese, and BS sessions. I never ceased to be amazed at his energy level, and he was well into his 80's then. I believe. Walt He started out most famous for his bird photos - but I've got a great book of his southwestern stuff in black and white. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
