Memories of the past will always will always be remembered; weather good ones or bad ones! Thank You, for a fine response! AP

Welcome, copladocus! As a Navy Corpsman, I hope your practice was a mild one . . . I was in the US Navy "SEABEES" MCB-8, worked quiet a bit of hours, including Sundays, half days.

When back in the states, I traded all my 35mm Minolta SRT 101, and moved on to Nikon F film camera & lenses. Their's much to talk about in photography, but I'll let it rest for now . . . those were tough years! AP

Welcome, tradio! Dind't start printing these photos till years after I was out, in 1968. I was a freelance sports photographer 15 yrs, 1969-84. I only have those four mounted in my computer, It's hard for me to do. I have a good eye! AP

I made these four photos in HUE Vietnam 1968, Anthony P. Gawrys I was just 20 yrs old in the making. I was involved in Art when I was 3yrs old and drew all kinds of cartoon characters perfectly.

I started my photography career in 1967 during my service days. I was on special detachment to Okinawa from HUE Vietnam 1968. While in Oki. I bought a brand new Minolta SRT 101 35mm film camera with a 58mm f1.4 lens.

In photo 1, I picked up the little boy and sat him on the Honda motorcycle. I focused my camera, composed, took one shot and walked away.

Photo 3, shows a man hauling his load. Notice he's smoking a cigarette, that's not a Marlboro, it's a joint!

Photo 4, shows girls disembarking from the perfume river.

My Food photography hadn't started yet, we have to wait 40 years longer! CIAO, AP

Welcome, Sam9987! I'm saying, hear this! Nomatter what you do, this tasty dinner will come out perfect on your first try, HOW'S THAT! AP

If I had just a freezer by itself, I too, would make all those quarts and freeze them! Hope you try it, it's very tasty. Hot or cold! AP

Don't feel bad, Earnest Botello. I too, have medical issues! A Stroke took the best of me in 1989 two weeks being in the VA Hospital Jamaica Plains, MA, I had a Pulmonary Embolism. 10 days after that, I gained Bacteria Phunimoia, for 12 days! This illness was worst than my whole Stroke.

On June 4, 2014, I had 3 Clogged Arties, and had to have open heart surgery, took 3 1/2 hours with no complications! I now have paralysis on my left side hand and foot, and, I am left handed, HOW'S THAT!

The more you learn about your sickness, the easier it is to live your life! I can't run or walk fast anymore. But, I walk slow and get by, watch where you step and you will not fall.

Don't even let things bother you! Just take your time and you'll get there . . . My photography goes back to Viet Nam 1966, 67, and 3 months in 68!

Did you know, that I photographed: Julia and Paul Child, in their home, Sep. 1978! I LOVE
