Description

Sometimes you cannot help but be the focus of attention.

It was 1969, and as usual I was walking the downtown street with my Nikon F, a 50mm F2.0 Nikkor lens and my Weston Master V light meter on my hip.

As this old car, even for that time, cruised by, they all turned to look at me, bringing to mind the old expression...

     " Why don't you take a picture?  It will last longer. "  

So I did, and here it is.

Check out the people, especially the back seat.  If they only knew this car would eventually be worth many thousands, they might have kept it.

Feel free to download, just give me photo credit.  Taken on Kodak Tri-X panchromatic bulk film.

Very nice vintage B W photo. I used to carry my Nikon everywhere back in those days too but didn't take many photos. MikeZ.
