"BEACH WALK" Wonderful Civil Rights Era pictorial photograph of the Kennedy's dating from the May 1968 Oregon Primary Presidential Campaign. View includes Robert and Ethel Kennedy strolling with their pet dog, Freckles along the North Oregon Coastline near Astoria. A wonderful symbolic photograph. The other figures who appear in this photograph happened along without a "script." They entered from the right (as you view the print) and continued past Robert & Ethel... diappearing from view. This image captured a decisive moment when the ensemble joined together to make a definitive image.
PHOTOGRAPHER'S STATEMENT: The camera I used for all of the Kennedy photographs was an original Motorized Nikon F with Nikkor Lenses. The photograph was taken on the Oregon Coast with a 85mm Nikkor lens, a personal favorite for documentary and pictorial photography. The original full frame of the Ektachrome has been preserved in this restoration faithfully capturing the vibrancy and color of the original.
