What a great idea, Mark! We really need to point this out to the worldwide
stereo community to document things and then make sure they put them in a
place where people can see them! Once you're done with your photographs,
think about donating some to museums, universities, etc. That way if you're
great-grandchildren don't care about those historic Beatles photos you took,
somebody else may have the opportunity to find them. I do a good deal of
historical type photography and I'm planning on donating some of my photos
in the future. So keep on takin' those pictures folks, somebody may be
interested in YOUR work!
