Wolfe and Shortwave. Actually, my grandfather was the photographer and these got passed onto my mom when he passed 20+ years ago and have been buried in the attic ever since. She had no clue they were up there. My interest came from a high school photography class I took back ...gasp...in the late 70's ('79 I think). Also came across a projector. Don't remember what brand or type though. That's another weekend!

Looks good to me too Grumpy. Nice shot. Those clouds pop and the trees looks sharp and dimensional too. Agree with Bobo on the horizon tilted slightly to left but may be landscape? nice work
