    • Patti Smith on her knees, San Diego, Nov 11, 1976. I taught myself how to develop film and make prints. I developed these incorrectly, hence the glow. No retouching!

    • Patti Smith, San Diego, November 11, 1976. Had to sneak camera in. Took a few quick shots before being escorted to my car to put camera into trunk. Developed film incorrectly. Glow is on Negative. Three amazing photos: on her knees, on her back and standing. Then no more. #PattiSmith #San Diego #JennyLens #PunkPioneersDotCom #PunkPioneers #PunkPioneersJennyLens #PunkPhotosForSale
