Very cute, Larry!  Your 1st shot's a winner!  Cheers, Christine


Big surprise - i agree with Christine ;-)
quite adorable - and it should only take you about 3 hours to "spot" it
worth doing... there is a charm about bw shots from bygone days and
one really sees your sister's personality come through.

The quality is therefore just about as bad as it gets, being a photo of a 
decades old proof, that wasn't actually even exposed properly in the darkroom.

The photo however has a lot of personal significance to me.  It is of my sister, at age 
7. It is even "on topic" as it was taken with my Dad's Spotmatic II. But the 
detail that makes this important to me, is that it is the first photograph that I ever 
took.  When my dad got the spotty, he taught me how to use it. I set up this photo, just 
as practice, and was quite surprised when Dad said that I could actually take the picture!

I'd like to think that my skill has improved a bit in the intervening 38 years, 
but even so I've taken much worse, much more recently.

Nothing wrong with that, Larry.
