Richard Avedon

Breson.

Now Avedon.

It's weird that he had a Brain Hemorage in San Antonio, because

everytime I am in that town I feel like I am going to have one myself.

I have seen this portrait a billion times but

I guess it has been awhile because now that I look

at it I can actually identify some of the equipment in the background.

The 4x5 is a F1 or F2 Sinar. I can tell my the edge of the railing that pokes out

from the shade bellows.

and the tripod is a gitzo because it has locking screws instead of clips like bogens.

I would even venture to say that the lens is

a Schnieder 90mm SuperAngular XL simply because of the size.
