Description

Taken at the Teenie Harris Photography Exhibit at Pittsburgh's Carnegie Museum of Art. Teenie was famed for his black and white photos documenting life of African Americans in Pittsburgh. To save film, he took only one shot of each subject. An extraordinary talent. Photography is allowed in certain exhibits within The Carnegie, but no tripods.

Unlike Teenie, this is reworked and resubmitted.

Category -- Catch All.

Exif: F Number: 2.8, Exposure Bias Value: 1.00, ExposureTime: 1/250 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 1250, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 70.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II

Yes....this is a wonderful capture Mary Beth! Thank you for the information about Teenie Harris.....most impressive. Wonder what he would do in the digital age? Googled his name and found a wonderful stoy, plus many of his photos (too hard to see in your capture - LOL) Have a terrific day! =^..^= #10197862
