Hi Nathan,

That's two different female personalities nicely captured.

The Bessas seem to be increasing in value.  I have an R2a sitting unused 
with batteries removed, the last film camera I used.  Not sure I'll ever 
go back.

Normally she comes to Alicante for 2 weeks every October, but last year such travel was not safe. But I wanted to be with her on her 75th birthday, so after a negative test the day before my flight, I went to Wrocław for a few days. One day we walked around the university campus where she studied in the 1960s, and I took this portrait of her which I like very much:
