The George Eastman Museum is located in Rochester, New York, on the estate of George Eastman, the pioneer of popular photography and motion picture film. Founded in 1947 as an independent nonprofit institution, it is the world’s oldest photography museum and one of the oldest film archives. The museum holds unparalleled collections—encompassing several million objects—in the fields of photography, cinema, and photographic and cinematographic technology, and photographically illustrated books. The institution is also a longtime leader in film preservation and photographic conservation. There is always something new and different to engage, educate, or entertain you at the Eastman Museum:

    From Wikipedia: Ramblersville is a section of Howard Beach, in the New York City borough of Queens, bordered by 160th Avenue on the North, Hawtree Creek on the West, the New York City Subway's Rockaway Line on the East and the 102nd Street Creek on the South. 102nd Street crosses the Creek to reach Hamilton Beach at Russell Street. Wonderful image, I love the Happy Days sign!

    Photography was so beautiful in those days. And they didn't realize what an art that early photography would be seen as.
