You Didn't Know I Had a Twin Brother in the USAFSS?

THEN... (Landsberg Air Base, 1953)
I spent many many hours in the photolab darkrooms at LAB, under the tutalidge of our esteemed German photographer, Toni Vangierdegom! I helped organize the "LAB Camera Clique," bought a complete Leica camera system, and really learned a lot about photography. This double exposure was obtained after 20 to 30 exposures in a completely dark room, so we could keep the shutter open!

NOW... (Photo Class, 2002)
I'm now into digital photography, and processing my photographs on my computer! I took a course in Photoshop at a local community college (free if you're over 65!) and we were given an assignment to make a "self portrait." Of course, I immediately thought to repeat my camera project from the Photo Lab at LAB. Only this time, the trick was done with my Macintosh computer and Photo Shop!
