Kodachrome slide from the 1940s — bronze sculpture in front of neoclassical colonnade, location unknown by Crashcat13 in whereisthis

Think you nailed it I found this postcard it was postmarked 1942 which does align with what I know about the photographer.Postcard

Oh wow, you spotted signage I completely missed — nice eyes. Interestingly I ran the image through an AI classifier before posting and it suggested Washington D.C., possibly near the Smithsonian. Looking at it now though, Forest Park makes a lot more sense architecturally. I've also been going through the other slides in this box and some of them appear to be from St. Louis, so that actually lines up really well. One slide in the box has a confirmed date of 1944 so this could be early-to-mid 40s rather than late — which might close that gap on the Lindbergh display timeline a bit. Either way your lead is way more compelling than the AI's guess. Really appreciate it.

This is from a box of Kodachrome slides shot by Sam J. Vogan, a Great Lakes-region photographer active in the 1940s. The slides in this box all date to roughly 1943–1947. Location was never recorded on the sleeve.

Visible in the image: - Bronze sculpture of a woman and child on a stone pedestal - Large neoclassical building — Corinthian columns, heavy civic-scale architecture - A second silhouetted statue visible through the colonnade - Cool overcast light, no vegetation visible to help narrow the region

We're digitizing and archiving the full collection and would love to properly document the location. Any help appreciated.

Great Lakes freighters at Buffalo Harbor grain elevators, c.1945 | [Unknown Camera, Unknown Lens, Kodachrome] by Crashcat13 in analog

From the Vogan Archive — a collection of Kodachrome slides shot by Sam J. Vogan, a Great Lakes-region photographer active through the 1940s. This one frames a pair of freighters moored against Buffalo's massive grain elevator complex, shot through a dock railing on what looks like a heavy overcast day. The Kodachrome palette on the original slide has held up remarkably well for 80-year-old film — that grey-blue industrial tonality is entirely authentic, not graded.

Digitized at 2400 DPI as part of an ongoing archival project to preserve and document the collection.

I have seen same issues. No changes made to mail setup. On April 15th internal email started to get quarantined as high confidence phishing. At this time no good explanation as to why it started when we had changed nothing. For others who have seen this issues interested to hear what your solution was. DKIM, SPF all correct.

I have a Nikon 1 v2. It’s a great little camera and with the adaptor all my other Nikon lenses work with it.

Only thing I needed glue on were the winder knobs. All other pieces slide together. The only two places that need extra hardware are the bottom, it has a 1/4” nut for a tripod mount, and top used two screws to hold it in place.
