There was a question not long ago about the first camera, etc... I was just a youngster, shoveling snow for neighbors, when I had enough money to purchase my first camera (I think it was 39 cents!). I then later graduated to a Kodak 126 instamatic, which I later gave to my grandmother. The next was the Kodak 110 Instamatic which was a good pocket sized camera. One of my colleagues in the mid 1970's introduced me to the Canon AT-1. The camera peaked my ambition into the realm of photography as art. I became enthralled with photography. Needless to say, over the years, with a wife and three kids, my love of photography did not suffer, but my activity in it did. I recently retired and am looking to be able to express my love of photography. On a cold, but sunny, day, I found a couple of books that inspired me in the 1970's in my love of photography--"The Joy of Photography" and "More Joy of Photography".
I was wondering how many of my fellow UHH followers were also inspired by these books from Eastman Kodak...
