"COAST RUN" RFK and Freckles famous "Coast Run" was captured on the Northern Oregon Coast. This image dates from the May 1968 Oregon Primary Presidential Campaign. Exposures were made on Kodak Ektachrome film. The original transparencies and negatives have been kept in dark storage and are in pristine condition for their vintage.

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 an 300mm Nikkor lens, a personal favorite for documentary photography. The telephoto perspective captures Robert with his beloved dog, Freckles shown tagging behind as they run north along the coastline.The unusual perspective is augmented by the compression of the lens offering "presence" of the subjects, set against an atmospheric foreshortened perspective. The light was changing rapidly during the shoot lending an evocotive mood change resulting from the interplay of light.
