Better be careful, Wild Bill. The Feds will nab you for posting child
porn.
I thought you were talkin about the naked gold guy on the statue
thingy.

No. I think he is wearing doeskin leathers....He is the Oregon Pioneer.

As for the child porn....It wouldn't surprise me....I didn't even get a
model release.......:^)

Ya know what's really scary?
If that kid is still alive he's probably about 58 years old.

I found it! What the heck was that person doing there in the nude?
LOL!
Did you get his attention once the shutter clicked, or were you able
to
escape without notice?
Good work!

You know, I don't remember....I took it back in 1957, when I was in
the
US
Navy stationed on a ship that was visiting Hong Kong. I didn't even
know
he/she was there until the other day, when I was scanning some of my
old
slides, and cleaning them up with Photoshop 7.......Since it was in
the
middle of the day, and there is a child there, I think it was a woman,
but
we'll never know now, some 49 years later......It does tell us
something
about "junk city", where many Hong Kong residents live.....they aren't
too
concerned about modesty....

1957----Wow. Those are great pics. Well done! Your preservation of
the photos and negs are to be commended.

I kept them in one of these metal boxes that holds 750 slides, and kept
them
in the house, where they wouldn't be subject to the temperature/humidity
extremes of a non-heated space like a garage, for example. Otherwise, I
didn't do anything special to/with them. But they are not really in very
good shape. I have to do an awful lot of retouching on some of them, to
remove dozens of specks and spots that I believe are the beginning of
mould
attacks. I don't know how I could have kept them any better, however,
unless
I had the wherewithal to keep them in a dry nitrogen atmosphere, or
something exotic like that.....Air can get into these boxes, and that may
be
a good thing. I don't know if they would have faired any better had they
been kept in an airtight container. The colors seemed to have faired
well....I seldom find one that needs color restoration......

It's almost impossible to keep anything dust free. Do you think those
plastic acid-free archival sleeves that store negs., slides, etc, are
any good? I've kept mine in those archival sleeves, but my negs are
only about 20 years old, when I became interested in photography.
Thanks,
Helen

Yes....I think they are a good way to store negatives....I don't know about
slides, but I don't see why not....I just ordered a bunch of them over the
internet, and I am putting my negatives in them as soon as I get them back
from the processor. I notice that Wal Mart already puts your film strips in
separate sleeves like that. They are shorter, and only hold strips 4
pictures long, but they are better than the old way, because each strip has
a jacket for itself, so the film doesn't get to rub up against another strip
in the bottom of an envelope, which is the old way of doing it.

Thanks Bill. I thought I may have to restore all my negs if I heard
those archival plastic sleeves were not good. WHEW!! :^)
