Homage to Frank
On the anniversary of this death, this is a tribute to the memory of my dear friend and mentor Frank Roland-Beeneken, a theater photographer to the stages of Berlin. He died on June, 9, 2000 at the age of 71. I will forever be grateful for his friendship and his influence in my life and my photography. He taught me, when I was a teenager, how to take photographs in b/w and how to process the negatives. Around this time, while he was taking portraits of me, I took this portrait of him. He loved snapping, not viewing, through the lens!
P.S.: Many thanks to Carl’s Captures for his help finding the right words! :))
The photo was taken in 1978 with an aalog Asahi Pentax camera and 35mm b/w negative film.
