I hit 65 this year, meaning I've been taking pictures for 60 years now. First 35mm camera was a Summer of mowing lawns in 1969.
I note a number of members here that seem "around this age"..
I thought it would be fun to post pictures taken when we were in school.

These are from the 1970s. "George Mason Day", an officially hosted party day. Drinking age was 18. How did we survive past 25?

This last shot- a 9 year old Daughter of one of the students. I taught her how to use the Nikon F2a with 24/2.8. She took a few good shots, I have the negatives.
All shots with a Nikon F Photomic "Bullseye", Panatomic-X developed in Microdol. I still have the negatives and notes. And the camera.
