I'll start :smiley:

This is my wife of 40+ years in the summer of '75 near KC, Mo. a few months before we were married. An oldie but still my favorite picture of a beautiful woman.

    That's just a much slmmer version of me with my trusty 35mm Mamiya-Sekor. If you look at her glasses and the rear door, you can see I made several appearances. Maybe that's why I like it so much ;)

    In the spirit of the original post.

    Here's Mrs. H back when she was still Ms P.
    I like this photo (even though it's not a great picture). This was her "engagement photo" (1982) which I took, developed and printed myself. I had only recently learned how to develop and print film, and I had easy access to a very good darkroom in grad school, so I went through a (brief) DIY phase.

    Here's Mrs H a few years later -- dealing with the results of a just-ended blizzard on Valentine's Day in 2014 :- )

    (Let the record show that I was shovelin' too! Just took a wee break to snap a few incriminating photos.)

    I didn't actually propose to her, she did to me. It went something like this

    Me: Why yes, I do have several nicknames - Jim, Jimbo, Dumbo and Tripod.
    She: Will you marry me?
    Me: I was only kidding about that last one.
    She: You had me at Dumbo.
    Me: But I travel a lot.
    She: You have heard of direct deposit, haven't you?
    Me: Yes, but won't you get, you know, frisky when I am away?
    She: You weren't kidding about that Dumbo, were you?
    Me: Okay, I'll marry you.

    At least, I think it went something like that.

    Don't think you can have the picture removed either, I already saved it for black mail purposes. That Marantz turntable you were trying to sell will make the picture disappear from my computer.

    Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same.

    I wasn't trying to imply otherwise. Just that she has that "Why are you taking my picture right now?" look. :D
