TWO SEATED AND ONE HOLDING BOTTLE,
PART OF LAWRENCE ENTOURAGE. THE MAN
HOLDING THE 8X10 CAMERA IS MARTIN WEIMER,
LAWRENCE'S RIGHT-HAND MAN FROM GEORGE'S
EARLIEST DAYS BACK TO HIS BALLOON PHOT0GRAPY.
THE MAN DRINKING COFFEE AND THE MAN HOLDING
THE BOTTLE WERE WORKING WITH LAWRENCE ON
THE FAMOUS PAN SHOTS, BUT THEY ARE NOT
KNOWN. ONE MAY VERY WELL BE RAPER J. WATERS,
A SAN FRANCISCO PHOTOGRAPHER. WATERS WAS
ONE TIME PARTNER WITH SF PHOTOGRAPHER
MORTON AND BECAME QUITE WELL KNOWN IN
SF AS A COMMERCIAL PHOTOGRAPHER.
IT IS NOT GENERALLY KNOWN THAT WATERS
RENTED THE KITE SYSTEM USED FOR THE SF
PHOTOS WHEN LAWRENCE LEFT TOWN, AND
USED IT SUCCESSFULLY FOR MANY YEARS
TO MAKE AERIAL VIEWS IN CALIFORNIA.
I KNOW A BIT ABOUT WATERS BUT HAVE NEVER
BEEN ABLE TO FIND A PHOTO OF HIM.
