A digital (*shudder*) attempt at the ole RGB. Again, I used cellophane as filters... which is certainly more effective than the stained glass, printed celluloid and mint containers I tried before.
Pretty bad photo but I include it because if its historical significance. Redl was the photographer of those iconic portraits of the major figures of the San Francisco rennaisance of the mid fifties, including several of McLure. (This is a rare case where the term "iconic" is totally appropriate.)
Photo taken at The University of British Columbia, Jan 20, 2006.

John Seward Johnson's "Unconditional Surrender", a painted bronze reconstruction of Alfred Eisenstaedt's iconic photograph for Life Magazine of a V-J Day kiss in Times Square. Johnson cites his source as another, less well-known, photograph of the same scene by Navy photo journalist Victor Jorgensen. This followed the owners of the copyright to Eisenstaedt's image refusing permission to use it.
Nikon S 6114605.
Originally this was a chrome camera body made by Nippon Kogaku 1952/53.
Between 1951 and 1955 Nikon produced more than 36,700 Nikon S rangefinder bodies.
Serial numbers range from about 6094001 to 6129600
They were all made in chrome finish except for a few (estimated around 15) that were commissioned by ‘Life’ magazine for its staff. Some six black cameras have been noted with adequate provenance and fetch extreme prices at auction.
Repainted ‘fakes’ abound with varying quality.
This body has been recently restored with a near mint black repaint, smooth thumbwheel focusing and a clear rangefinder image.
Go back through this album for the full story of the ’Life’ Nikons.
Major Joe Foss, from Minnehaha County, shot down 26 enemy planes and earned the Congressional Medal of Honor during World War II. He was later elected governor of South Dakota. LIFE magazine featured Joe Foss in his U.S. Marine Corps uniform, 1943.
I almost never use my flash. For one thing, I don't care for flash photography, unless I am using professional flash units. I liken flash photos to snapshots anyone can take. But I decided to experiment and use fill flash here, to bring up the shadow area. Had there been an HMI light or a reflector available I would have used them instead. Anyway, you can see better the bouquet of roses the nurse is holding as she receives the sailor's kiss. It was not unusual for complete strangers to act so intimate when news of a war's end was announced. It was an affirmation of life.

Odd....They don't mention the weight. I assure you, one would not want to carry it very far.
