mono origins

I hope "Origins" is a licence for serious back-blipping...

Here's a self-timer shot (the origins of the selfie?) from the origins of my career. 1979, a room sized IBM 370/145 - with way less computing grunt than a fruit-phone has now..

Scanned from a print produced in my "darkroom", a euphemism for a spare 3 foot by 6 foot bathroom with a mono enlarger and wash trays plumbed into the loo .. and I had to seal myself in with the door taped up from the inside to keep the light out.  In itself the Origins of my appreciation of the laptop/photoshop/lazyboy combination.
