An Old Friend Greets the New Year



















This lady's my first post because I took her picture in June, 1969, in Moscow, when Russia was still the Soviet Union.  I was using a camera that my father had had when he was in the army in the 1940s.  It had a light meter and a very cool brown leather case.  Camera, case and meter were stolen out of an apartment in Boston soon after I got back from the USSR.  So it's fun to see it the picture here, on the first day of 2010.  Celebrating transcendence, resilience, adaptation, resilience.  Viva!
