[Leica] IMG: Family get-together

[Ted Grant]

HI GERRY,
WHAT AN INCREDIBLLE COLLECTION OF WALK ABOUT STREET PHOTOGRAPHY! WITHOUT
QUESTION THEY ARE QUITE INCREDIBLE, ALL OF THEM IN FANTASTIC ARRAY! I'M
ASSUMING THEY ARE A COLLECTION OVER LONG-TIME WALK ABOUTS?
THIS WAS MUCH OF THE TYPE OF MATERIAL I WAS ASSIGNED TO SHOOT DURING MY
EARLY DAYS IN OTTAW & ACROSS CANADA.
ALL THAT MATERIAL TODAY IS HELD IN THE National Archives of CANADA THAT
FORMS A COLLECTION WELL 0VER SEVERAL HUNDRED THOUSAND PHOTOS ALL ACROSS
CANADA COAST to COAST.:-) MUCH OF THE ASSIGNMENTS WERE ASSIGNED BY THE
NATIONAL FILM BOARD OF CANADA. DOCUMENTING,SOMETIMES A MONTH OF SHOOTING ON
THE STREETS OF VANCOUVER, MONTREAL,TORONTO OR WHEREVER? AWWWWWWWWWWW!! ;-)
THOSE WERE THE DAYS OF 35MM B&W FILM BY THE HUNDREDS OF ROLLS OF FILM!! :-)
AND I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT ACCEPT ON THE SNOW AND RAIN DAYS. BEST PART?
I DIDN'T HAVE TO SOUP THE FILM, NOR MAKE CONTACT SHEETS FOR EVERY ROLL OF
FILM! THE DARKROOM CREW LOOKED AFTER ALL THAT.
CHEERS,
Dr. ted grant O.C.
