SOME BRIEF NOTES ON THE VIDEO
•The You Tube link below takes you to the documentary, which starts 2 minutes into the video, but if you want, you can scroll back to the start, which begins with a "retro" Kodak film commercial.

•A brief apology... I'm not trying to torture you, I realize that this documentary might seem a little slow-paced, and is now a bit dated, but it is a really good overview about the roots of photography, and as I like to say, how do you know where you are if you don't know where you've been?

•FYI -A bit of trivia for you Star Trek fans, the guy talking in the video at the 2 minute point is Leonard Nimoy -he was the Mr. SPOCK character in the original 1960's version of the Star Trek TV series. (Yes, that Star Trek, back in the day when Mr. V was just a pup -yes I had an "Starship Enterprise" model hanging from the ceiling above my Bundle).
