May 11, 2007 Jamestown, Va. Daguerreotype where images were captured on silver plated copper and no further images could be replicated. If you are a photography history buff like me I always find old photo processing amazing...

thanks emily, dominick, roxanne, and stan K!!!

Yes Roxanne, the lady is resting because as we all know, a lady's work is 9-5, but a man's work is never done!....that is right isn't it? #4786668

Had to open this one, William, (and others, of course, on my first visit to your gallery). The treatment here is just so right for the subject. And I see you've got my camera--the Panasonic. I don't use it as much as I used to, but should. Using my Nikon more these days. But it's just a wonderful carry around everywhere camera. #5204366
