Where are you seeing the camera and negatives? I went back to the original article and do not see the photographer with his camera.
The photo of the man on the article link appears to be Jon Tevlin, who is the author of the article. Not the photographer, who was Frank Glick.
I have photos of FG from another source. I have to run right now and don’t have time to bother with photobucke, but the bottom line is this:
One of us is right, at this point, I don’t know which one. If it IS a digital camera, (unlikely) then you may have point. (although that doesn’t mean the image is fake.)
If its a 35mm, then its a settled issue. Negatives don’t lie unless its a stuffed bird.
Sorry I have to leave it hanging right now, but I’ll be in touch!
Have a good weekend.
