Using my Leica 3A, I made this view from a NYCTA city bus in The Bronx circa 1980.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t have any notes at all from this trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In all likelihood, I was using a 35mm Nikkor lens with a screw-mount designed for the Leica 3 series cameras. This was a favorite of mine at the time because it required an adjustable external viewfinder that made it easier to compose than the tiny window on the camera body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The primary subject of the photo was the subway train on what I think was the White Plains Road elevated line. At right is my brother Sean. We were traveling with our grandmother from Fordham Road toward Co-op City as part of a shopping trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This photo has been quietly hiding, unprinted and unseen in a glassine negative sleeve for nearly 40 years! (Try that with your favorite phone photo.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
