                Hi Kabu! After looking into the super nova of those old flash bulbs, the sun wasn't so bad, except we were now conditioned to squint in front of any camera.

                I had forgot about those huge flash bulbs! How technology has progressed! I don't think I could have gone through a lifetime with those! I remember squinting, too! sam

                Hi bill! If I had the right equipment I wouldn't have had to squint.

                Squint is better than putting a dead pan face in front of the camera!

                Very funny!!  I too remember those walnut-sized bulbs; they'd bubble and swell after flashing and man those things were HOT!  I never squinted, but for some reason I was always the one who had to remove and replace the bulb.....Mal
