[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have one yearbook and it has a date on it. 1969 The year I graduated from High School. It was New Trier West, Northfield Illinois. The guy who did most of the photography in it was Marc Hauser http://www.marchauserphoto.com/ He went on to become internationally known; but kept his home base in Chicago. I emailed him once a few years ago. One day in the rec room he showed me his camera, a Nikon and a few of his lenes in his camera bag. That was the first time I got a look at pro level camera stuff. And got a tour of it. I was using a Voigtl?nder Vito BL rangefinder with no rangefinder. And no lens which came off. But not doing much shooting in public being a shy kinda guy. I just shot landscapes way off somewhere. But by college I did stuff for the Alumni Paper. Our 1969 yearbook is much classier looking than most I've seen. Warm tone printing on good paper. All black and white. It made you not want to mark it up with stuff with a ball point. Some of my high school pals are now pals again with the internet and all. We also had a 1969 LP which was called "Soundtracks" Always a guy with a tape recorder and fancy mikes.... http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2010/03/new-trier-west-high-school-soundtracks -1969.html Or http://tinyurl.com/2aztc6a -------------------- Mark William Rabiner Photography http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/lugalrabs/ mark at rabinergroup.com Cars: http://tinyurl.com/2f7ptxb > From: Wayne Torry <wtorry at vbar.com> > Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Date: Mon, 27 Dec 2010 19:27:21 +0000 > To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Subject: [Leica] Leica Users Group Yearbook 1969 > > It's too bad we didn't have a LUG Yearbook way back when. > > If there had been a Yearbook in 1969, this photo would have been submitted. > > Somewhere in Normandy. > > http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/venchka/Europe-1969_001/france/France-Rural00 > 8-5.jpg.html > > In the meantime, submit NOW for 2010.
