Happy Hog Rot

Today while inventorying my ridiculous and long-buried stash of exposed but undeveloped 35mm film (51 rolls so far) and unexposed, unused and outdated 35mm film (about 30 rolls so of everything from Tri-X to High Contrast Copy film to unidentified mystery stuff), I also came upon a box of small 5×7 prints.  One of these reveals Ansel Adams in 1973 when I was in his Yosemite workshop:

Another, also from 1973, discloses Jim Friedman in the presence of his mystery lover:

Jim and the Mystery Woman (1973)

As I was setting up my camera and tripod, Jim Friedman suddenly lunges at the shutter release and interjects his nose and polaroid portrait onto the scene:

Then I capture him as he thrusts himself immediately in front of my lens:

I assume that Friedman will be insisting on credit and copyright for these images.
