Timmers Loc: San Antonio Texas.

Another set of images just like them white corset saps in post 116, BUT, VADA is necked! We did a corset change, but there was more to come. Spoiler alert, enjoy these oh White Knights, because there will be a big LONG fat candy cane coming!

Rant from today with the junior exploders:
I love modern medicine, so totally asleep at the switch so often.
Doctor to me, "Mr. Summa are you taking the antibiotic that was prescribed, this leg should be doing better?" Me, "Well doc, no I have not taken the antibiotic that you wanted me to take, but before you ask me, ask your technician/nurse the same question."

Doctor to me, "I don't understand?"
Me in return, "Neither do I doctor, so lets just get on with this properly, take the magic doctor pad in your pocket and write out the script for the drug and give it to me, lets do that now please."

"Well if you didn't get the medication, then..." I stopped him, "Doctor you have just found yourself in the classic film sequence from Cool Hand Luke where the warden is speaking to the assembled inmates to whom in that southern drawl, "What we have here is failure to communicate". So assemble your minions and you have permission to stand on a wood box and speak in that creepy southern drawl to the gathered people. So if you will write that prescription down I will be on my way to the pharmacy to get the drug and you can figure out why this disaster occurred."

So I got my script and from now till I go to my grave, thank you vary much, screw all this BS with electronic communication, paper works and I need my health attended too.

Tim, this series is really nice, but for some reason the colours appear drab.

Are her boobs getting bigger or is it my eye sight? Imagination?

Some help with that focus question, if the tree looks sharp but the nude model looks soft, well I think it has to do with something I noticed about the sort of models I shoot, namely these Babe-A-Luscious women are a lot like clouds, they be soft and round, giggle and float as they move about, but they never seem to realy be solid or sharp. Their clothes look sharp it is true but as soon as they float out of those clothes, well they are that soft ephemeral round ness, much like in the cartoon Deadbone Erotica where the clouds and broads (it's what they are called!) are just soft. Now the Lizards, who have no sex parts are in a state of constant turmoil, with but one thing to keep them distracted God Doom.

Tim,
I am not smart enough to try to figure this out BUT !!!!!!!!!! I am glad your getting the Rx and take it as directed. I do not know why you did not before as you stated.
I could not read your narrative without getting on box and say something.
I do think you worked in health care too.
I spent 20+ years in hospitals and their clinics.
The stuff I saw !!! dude, you know what I am talking about.
Please take care of yourself, please.

I'm being a good boy! I am one who takes care of my health and I make no excuses to not work on MY health. The number one thing I know is you must take your health seriously, every body is the second line as it is you and your body.

Yes, I got to work with Pathology at MD Anderson, the morgue was a second office for me. I liked working there and supporting the work. The main photography room was on the basement floor, my workroom door was a few feet on the opposite side from the eradiation machines. The closest was a unit know to us as The Pearly Gates Machine, last use to add a few days to life before the end. I always looked at my feet as I traveled past the sofas with patent. I would see a few days later before they left for ever. But you get use to doing what you do and do the best.

My leg is in good shape actually. I take care and so I'm off to get my blue inflatable chaps on for an hour of compression therapy. For all President Nikon's short comings, he was a great leader giving the elderly of this nation the gift of health support in old age through Medicare. It's too bad there are few if any visionary politicians for the people any more.

What you said I suspected and I feel better now, but still I had to speak up, as you know, the stuff we saw, I had to.
Anyway take care Ok,

You're confusing the Canon of truth with the shortcomings of "Nikon". Medicare was passed by the Democratic congress and signed into law by LBJ in 1965. Nixon initially opposed the expansion of Medicare to cover the disabled and dying, but eventually came around and signed a bill doing this in 1972. In general he opposed funding for Medicare over most of his political life.

Yes Nixon was evil, that's why he sighed into law legislation that did fund Medicare. LBJ was along with his buddies the Dems passing laws to give us health care there is no dough about that. It was that which opened the door to actually making the law, but who actually made that law work.

To be honest, I fell these groups LBJ and Nixon were both essentially despots. The best way to get the health care needed, let me be in a fantasy world here, only those serving in the armed forces should receive military medicine, perhaps for wounded a month after they are mustered out. Everyone else would get no military medicine. Now that would get everyone's panties in a bind! LOL!!!

AndyH Loc: Massachusetts and New Hampshire

What in the name of Ansel Adams are you talking about? Nixon signed no such law, LBJ did. Love it or hate it, that's what happened. I'm expressing no opinion on either of them, but facts are facts, not whatever you want them to be....

I figured this would bring some out of the woodwork. Your correct and I could care less for the war between the two party system.

NOW about the pictures: Yep the color is a bit muted, in our minds seasoned with digital pixels, but lit does contribute to the vintage look. With the color films of the 50-60s it is pretty bright and as most of us saw them as printed on (almost) newsprint this is what we saw. I like them--even the expressions on faces match the era.

Headed out to the Dr for some much needed and delayed antibiotic myself. Be well Timmers

On the off chance that a few on here do want to get a deeper understanding of what came before I will venture into the not so distant past of this thing called color. Much of what paves the way for the post WW II era, the so called modern era of photography was pretty much in the hands of one worker Paul Outerbridge Jr. No other single photographer did more to create the conditions for photography's entry into the arena of color.

On the aesthetic level he put forward some pretty interesting ideas of the underbelly of modern sociability and he was not shy in his handling of these visionary concepts. That aside we owe quite a lot to his sense of clear vision as to what photography can and should do. A balance between technique and concepts, but the 'technique' was always at the service of the idea and the artist intent.

There exists a period of compression as to the evolution of color. My personal feeling is that as 'vision' evolves, the ability to 'see' has shifted more and more from a visual phenomenon to one of perception with the mind.

Before World War Two, during and immediately after into the 1950's color was muted. Grayed down if you like. The colors were there yet they just were not vibrant. A look at the classic Sears Fiesta Wear you have the colors, but they are not vibrant. They are saturated, even dens but the color was not pure, it was toned down as if some gray had been added to control the expressiveness of the color. Kodachrome was strong, it showed color with clarity, mostly with a certain contrast and yet it was never quite as vibrant as some objects called for. The film did handle one critical aspect of color clearly and powerfully, that of cyan.

Kodachrome handled Cyan manifestly. But then the Caucasian world viewers are not that responsive to Cyan and it's partner in the color Green. Green is not a color that the Caucasian eye needs, it dances to the opposite color of Cyan, that is Red.

In the late 50's and early 60's in stumbled the new color Polaroid built. The process favored the color pallet of greens. So no surprise that Polacolor was strongly favored by the African American viewers and many of the other ethnic peoples.

In the early 60's color began to emerge as a more ripe pure tonality of color. So advertisers, makers of 'for sale' objects tended to use more pure dyes in their for sale objects. Pure vibrant colors became the desired thing in images.

Then towards the end of the 60's a new radical shift took place, what is now called psychedelic colors. This is the color of the mind expanded such that occurred in areas of the brain that are only now being understood as 'real' and 'there' in the human conscious mind.
