Title: Airport
Post by: RSL on May 14, 2018, 09:51:06 am
Another one from Leica M4 days. I shot this about fifty years ago. Those of you who've been around long enough probably can remember when you could sit around in the lounge and when boarding time came, sort of drift on board the airplane without having to take off your shoes or run your stuff through scanners. But you didn't often see a guy ogling the women this obviously.

Good one, Russ.
+1.

And you and I don't have to take our shoes off any more, Russ. One of the few benefits of advanced age.   :)

Another advantage of advanced age, Eric, is that I no longer have to ride in any airplanes I'm not flying -- which is all of them.

I'll be turning 60 this year. ... I remember getting dressed up to fly on an airplane. As seat sizes and amenities declined, so did the dress code. Funny to see those black tin can ashtrays with the fine white sand in the foreground.

Perhaps the man is the husband of one of the women?
