Thousand Islands, Canada. By Paul Goldfinger © Re-posted from 2013 Blogfinger. An image from this photo-shoot was published with the same light. It won a national calendar contest, but this image was not submitted. It is one of my favorites, shot with Kodachrome.
ANITA O’DAY. “My Ship” is from the 1941 musical Lady in the Dark. It was written by Kurt Weill (music) and Ira Gershwin (lyrics) Ira: Is it “a pair of dice” or a “paradise” in the hold ?

Paul Goldfinger, MD. This image appeared in a 1988 Pfizer Labs calendar (contest winner) which was distributed world-wide. I was Miss August. It was taken in Tlaquepaque, Mexico—near Guadalajara.
This town is in the State of Jalisco where mariachi music was invented in the 18th century. I love mariachi music–it has vocal harmonies, accordions, harmonicas, trumpets, guitars and strings—it is happy music. And you can dance to it, but you need a big sombrero to fit in.
If you visit Guadalajara and its surroundings, the mariachis follow you wherever you go. This photo actually brought me some fan mail. But after winning this contest 5 or 6 times, I decided to specialize in black and white.
Th reason I was in Jalisco then was to be a visiting professor of cardiology at the Univ. of Guadalajara School of Medicine where there were many American students who were glad to see me. Eileen and the boys accompanied me on the trip which we did three times. The staff took us out to dinner a few times, but it was not Mexican food as we know it in Asbury Park. There is a heavy Spanish/European influence, and the cuisine was wonderful.
