  1. That’s awesome! That reminds me of the days when newspapers wanted to see portfolios on chromes. We’d all be standing around trying to find a nice light source to view portfolios.

  2. I really like the photo within a photo going on – and the ghostly old man in the background is rather uncanny – makes the somewhat everyday life subject of the image surreal.

  3. I knew the photographer, Lutz Dille, for much of his life. He survived the Russian Front during the War, and for the rest of his life his lens searched restlessly for the core, the truth of humanity. His photos are phenomenal!
