It's Charlotte County's 100th birthday! Our Centennial Exposition is a series of videos celebrating what life was like in Charlotte County a century ago. This is the first of several featured programs throughout the year. Join us as we bask in our fascinating past and celebrate all that Charlotte County has to offer in the present.
Your Charlotte County Libraries and History staff know you depend on the #library for more than just books. While we can't gather in person right now, we hope you'll join us for some of our virtual programs. We’re streaming great content for adults, teens, and kids right here on UA-cam.
Supplies are available for many of our virtual craft programs at your library branch on a first-come, first-served basis. Feel free to call ahead to make sure kits are still available: www.charlottecountyfl.gov/dep...

Great interview and thank you for sharing. This man has forgotten more than I'll ever know about photography! Thanks again.

I got into photography in 1975 when my mom gave me a Petri Racer 35mm, rangefinder for my 15th birthday my mom always supported my love of photography

Love this interview. The patience Clyde had waiting 6 months after their trip to get 1700 photos processed. Incredible!

There is a family owned shop in Jacksonville, FL that still processes film. Their name is Fototechnika.

A Durst 800 AC Elite enlarger in its day would have cost 6 months teachers salary (about £16,000 equivalent todays price) but I got mine for £300 on eBay, and I was the only bidder.
