Manhattan, 1980. I took this shot using a 110 camera at the time (processed now on the iPhone), it turns out to be my only shot of the Twin Towers. I always thought they would be there to photograph another time. Take nothing for granted. #September11th #WTC (Taken with instagram) Shot with a 110 film camera in 1980 and post processed today using PhotoForge2. (Affiliate link is to the Apple App Store)

Classic video footage from a 1973 #StarTrek convention in NYC. A few years before I started going to cons myself. This one was a bit before my time (being I was too young).

A few years after this convention, Isaac Asimov interviewed here would scold me at different Star Trek convention in NY. Hey, I was young. Speaking of age, all the teens and 20-somethings in this clip are probably now in the 50s and 60s (and I’m sure are still fans). 

The best is the last clip of an emotional fan. Those were the days.
