I used to work with the mentally handicapped. I took photos of them everywhere. I didn't like the Mary Ellen Mark look. I tried to get them while they were doing something. This is an old print but I wanted to scan it to see if any of that Portriga look can be seen on the monitor...it CAN'T. I'm disappointed
It still is a beautiful photograph Eric! We take for granted here that the beauty of a print or an alternative process cannot be transfered over the wire.
Thanks guys. My wife is a special ed teacher now. I have some ideas but I don't want to have images are too cliche with that popluation. I wonder if that is even possible. It helps to be with them a lot. I'm always visiting the class and everyone knows me. Same with the adults. I don't think you can really take good shots of that popluation without spending a lot of time with them.
