Hi Bill and everyone else here. Sorry if this question is redundant:

Bill - in that self-portrait on page 146 of The Leica Manual, what M-model do you have next to you? Were you working or freelancing for a paper at the time?

And BTW - that darkroom you're in looks fantastic. Was it at home or at work?

For my own part, I'm resigned to working in the 'Open Darkroom' program at 3 hours at a time at a local high school. It's not long enough. A girlfriend once said while rolling her eyes: "You'd never come out of a well-equipped darkroom."

Thanks for hanging out here,

CJ

It's hard to tell, but looking at the lever that actuates the rewind, it looks like an M2. Certainly can't be certain.

I've always freelanced even when Time-Life was kind enough to give me an office on the photo floor.

And the darkroom was at home. Home was the first automated grist mill in the country, built in 1725. (George Washington didn't sleep there, but his troops did.) There was lots and lots of space.
