Happy birthday to Laura!

Happy Birthday, dear Laura :flowers:

Thank you for being a beacon in this world, together with the forum members who all together in dynamic ways have lead to this forum and its development. It's still fascinating every time I think about it; the persistence, the passion, the endurance, the depths ... from the very beginning to what it is now. It just is mind boggling !

I am deeply thankful and hope you spent a wonderful day with the family and friends 💞

(PS: It is an photo from feb/mars 1996 - made with Tungsten color negative film (C-41). The flower I got from my Russian friend Julia, which I remember as the woman who had this fantastic eye for beauty, flowers, frost and macro details; her style was incredibly romantic, dreamy and very different from mainstream photography, as well my own photography. So, her work inspired me a lot, back then; to give a flower much more attention, when taking photos of them. This one i got from her, looked so beautiful with the funny branches, that i took it into the photo studio [simple living room] and tried to sculpture it carefully with various light scenarios)

The final images would then be printed and developed in the darkroom, on a special paper called 'Fuji de Luxe Superglossy' made of pure polyester, with gave images an almost metallic sheen.
