Great movie. Do not forget the performance of Jimmy Page (The Yardbirds), pre-Led Zeppelin.

Happy Holidays,

Hi Folks,

For some of you who may not have been born in the '40's, and who were not around in the '60's, the movie "Blow Up" is a must see. This shows one side of the way a few photogs treated models (not many hopefully) but the technical stuff and the old "F" with the old 50mm f1.4, of which I have one exactly like in the movie, are so cool. Yes, we did actually have to crank the film forward back then. And finding things in your photos you did not see originally, then questioning whether it is imagination or reality, wonderful. You get to see Veruschka, who was the dominant form then. So, give yourself a Christmas present or Hanukkah gift and order the DVD. It is such wonderful travel back in time. Incidentally, I never did shoot anyone like Veruschka.... Alana Collins in her very early days was about it.

Happy Holidays

Ms. Tommie Lauer
