Little girls representing different habits of nuns in Chicago 1954. Image from original B&W 4x5 inch camera negative.
"I wanted to be a nun. I saw nuns as superstars. When I was growing up nuns, to me, were these superhuman, beautiful, fantastic people." Madonna Ciccone.
My passion for photography thrives in the creative process and the opportunity to share an observation. I am also dedicated to the preservation and restoration of historic film and glass negatives. The "vintage" images on my site are 50 to 100 years and older. All the "vintage" images displayed here are first generation, meticulously restored from the "original" camera negative. Now that almost all photography is digital, keeping an archive of original camera negatives is a way to preserve the physical connection to our past which exists in the photographic negative. I love traveling across the United States and this enables me to pursue my passion for creating fine art photography. Visit my web site at www.mkphoto.net

Thank you Alex.
Martina Rall
Beautiful restoration Martin! But it pains me seeing these girls deprived of their individuality. With celebrities nun's stories I associate Audrey Hepburn. Audrey personifies grace and honesty, Madonna vulgarity and hypocrisy, to me she the opposite of a nun.

Interesting Martina, Thank you.
