Happy Canada Day

A Moment in Photographic History:
On July 1, 1934 the first x-ray photograph of an entire human body was done in Rochester, New York.
A Photographic Quote of Note:
Photographs can be used to lie, flatter, seduce, blackmail, or restrict human freedom. As mass-produced junk images they can debase taste and narcotize people to prefer the image to the experienced reality it represents. But photographs also can preserve, comfort, inform, and clarify. They can provide esthetic pleasure of the highest order and enlarge our vision of the universe.

    And happy moving in day too. I’ll bet you are exhausted. Wish I could bring over a pan of lasagna and a box of chocolates.

    Welcome to the new abode. May it be a happy place for you.
