Here are three photos with the sun from 1968, the year I discovered the joy of Kodachrome. The industrial Menomonee Valley in Milwaukee. < http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/The+Sixties/19681012_MR_Rails_9.jpg.html > A Catholic shrine on the highest hill in SE Wisconsin. I think it was hand-held, but for me the drama outweighs the softness. < http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/The+Sixties/19681022_MR_HolyHill_9.jpg.html > A frozen lagoon next to Lake Michigan and downtown Milwaukee. < http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/The+Sixties/19681205_MR_Sunrise_3.jpg.html > And from 1972, my first roll of H&W Control Film, a precursor to Kodak's Tech Pan emulsion. I shot this with a Pentax 50mm f/4 Macro-Takumar (the pre-set version that went down to 1:1). The instructions said it was suitable for enlarging purposes, and it's what I used until I got an El-Nikkor. The pre-set diaphragm was very handy for printing - no counting clicks after composing on the easel. < http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/The+Seventies/19721001_MR_H_amp_W_2.jpg.html > Maybe it's spurious resolution, but the micrograph photo seems to show stripes on the student's sock. < http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/The+Seventies/19721005_MR_H_amp_W_Micro_11.jpg.html > Alan Alan Magayne-Roshak, Senior Photographer University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Photo Services (Retired) UPAA Photographer of the Year 1978 UPAA Master of the Profession 2014 amr3 at uwm.edu http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/ "All the technique in the world doesn't compensate for an inability to notice.
