 I won a high school photography contest with this photo back around 1977. This was taken at the Old Bethpage Restoration Village on Long Island. I've been looking for this photo for a while so I could scan it and post it. I think it was shot with either a Minolta SRT-101 or an Argus rangefinder. I don't recall which camera I had at this time.

I know you took this long ago and with film but it deserves a comment - you had the eye even back then - this is a wonderful shot.

Wow! You really pulled this off extremely well! This has such a great artistic feel to it, wonderful play of darks and lights and a nice soft texture throughout!

This makes me want to go find a film camera again and have a play. Lovely work!

I like this a lot. The lighting is great as is the composition. Something about film I think. I have never really shot B&W film, but I'm very tempted to start.

I love the tons and the feel of this image. I never used film, I only got into photography during the explosion of the digital age, but shots like this want to make me go out and buy a film SLR.

This is a great piece of work, so unassuming yet so nice to look at.
