College sun bathing.img486, with story

It's always been a challenge to meet interesting and attractive women.  

During my college years, my camera made many introductions easier.  While this was a way to introduce myself, you still had to have something to back up these meetings and auditions.  Along the way I went from a 17 year old, very young looking man, to a conversationalist with interesting points of view.  As always my subjects knew I was taking their image, often to give to them later, as a history of their lives as well as mine.

In this instance it was the early summer of 1967 and the attractive yet studious women of the day would combine their school work with their beauty tans, for back then, the sun was not the enemy it is today.
