I got a little closer to shoot this image of the two mannequins. It doesn't so much re-create the V-J Day image in Times Square as it suggests a sailor returning to his ship and saying goodbye to the nurse he met on shore leave. Perhaps any music playing can be the song "Give Me Something To Remember You By."

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.)

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

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.
