When my wife and I settled into an apartment in Dayton, OH in 1951, I was a raw USAF 2nd Lieutenant, with no car, and very little in the way of possessions. We had received a Kodak Brownie Flash 620 camera as a wedding gift. Our idle time was often spent walking in the Salem Avenue neighborhood, and the Dayton Art Institute was within our path. This is one of my first photographs, scanned from an album print that was more than 50 years old. This is how it all began for me, and within a year I had a used Leica IIIa and a growing love of photography.
