Cleaning catfish, a photo from South Carolina, South

Photographer's Note

One more of the series I took that New Year's Day in Santee, SC 1968. Here we see a close-up of what the one man was doing while talking to his friend. In those days catfish were considered junk food by many. Today this same fish costs plenty. Yes, much has changed.

I still have a few pictures left from this series that I will continue to post.

Oh, the lens I used was the Nikkor 75mm that came with the Bronica "C" in those days.

Beautiful capture of these hands. The texture is just amazing. Despite all the modern technology, there doesn't seem to be a substitute for large format camera, good film, technique, and a good eye.
