"They were what I wanted." (Elaine) I think she really captured the moment and the times. I love her honesty. What I wouldn't give to have lunch or dinner with her sometime. Thanks for all the great work, Elaine - and to Damiani for doing the book and the vids.

Interesting. Thank you. She was a West Coast photographer in the Ansel Adams straight photography style. You can't get more west than San Francisco.

At the 10:51 mark he is showing a photo as an “example of melancholy in the air”. The man in the photo is poster and comics artist Rick Griffin who is known for his flying eyeball art.
