Not the "A" but to the Left or SW of that marker, Gutenbergstrasse...right there by Holtz Druck.

I've done large traps by turning on the white fluorescent lights instead of using the exposing lamp.

I've only heard of that, never performed it. Damn, now I'm remembering shooting halftones on a Brown horizontal.

Spent many hours in the camera room. Running back in the dark to load film. Taking naps in the dark room. :tapedshut:

Afternoons in the camera room...  :grin:   Which reminds me I must get that triple Konica lens set from the Screen camera onto eBay.

Sabrina the TP... if that avatar comes into focus, does it look something like the late Nicolette Larson?    :undecided:

Of course. You can see how well I turned out. Thirteen years in printing only enhances my glowing personality.

Beautiful shot. What's all that green stuff???

I noticed nearby the town of Haselhof. That's probably where Joe would go after a grueling day turning the letterpress, put on his fancy knickers and woo the ladies in the town pub.

No, I'm waaaay uglier that that. Plus my hair only gets wavy like that after I get rained on.

Whatever it is, it's radioactive, with a very long half-life.

"There's been a lot of research recently on how hard it is to dislodge an impression once it's been implanted in someone's mind. (This is why political attack ads don't have to be true to be effective. The other side can point out their inaccuracies, but the voter's mind privileges the memory of the original accusation, which was juicier than any counterargument ever could be.)"
