Benchmarks: Photography (30 Years Apart)

The above picture was taken on a cloudy, Fall day in 1983. The building is part of an old pioneer/indian village in The Dalles (Oregon). I thought it would be interesting to go back to this area and see if the village buildings were still standing and ask the model (my wife) to again pose in the same building window. So today we headed up to The Dalles. It was a cold, blustery Fall day. We located the same building/window from 1983 and attempted to set up the shot as before. The lighting was bright, the wind ferocious and the attire different. But, the outcome was successful! Most importantly, the model, wasn’t disappointed with the results.
