Christmas 1970

My father was an avid photographer.  As I child I always remember him with his Rolleiflex 6x6 taking the family photos.  I grew up in the darkroom with him from age six.  I'm a professional photographer now and I often wonder if I did not get here due to his enthusiasm for photography and the darkroom.  This shot was off of a tripod and was taken when I was ten in 1970. As I look back on it, it reminds me of a shot from a Sears catalog. The good life! It was a good Christmas. View full size.

The Good Life - Indeed

Great picture, just curious how long that telescoping antenna on your walkie-talkie lasted. I remember some lasting as long as week between my brothers and I collapsing and extending them.
