Wow! I have had my head down for months studying photography. Not feeling that I was getting anywhere in particular, though I was on my way to recognize that print was the destination.
Then I actually looked at these photos in the link. Studied them! Putting myself in the shoes of the photographer. The lens used. The lighting. From composing the shot until the final print from the darkroom, after getting it 'right'.
And I reached a moment of epiphany! All of a sudden it all came together for me where I understood the art of photography. The destination. The print. Where the photographer saw the end result before they pressed the shutter button. In B&W! Back to basics, I love it.

I am very happy I live today and not back then. I keep thinking of the summer heat without AC and having to wear those suits, ties and starched shirts. It was interesting to see the Times building in Times square. I was there when I got out of the Army the first time.
