Hold your breath for these photos - Ombligo - 08-01-2013 ![]() Gone. They all are. Tarzan, dead. Lloyd Bridges, the Sea Hunt guy, rest in peace. Esther Williams, the Hollywood mermaid, passed away in June. Bruce Mozert knew them all. Mozert is not gone. He's 96, walks with a cane, loses his breath and, once in a while, his train of thought. "But I'm still standing,'' he says in a strong voice. He reports every day to his studio around the corner from what was once Florida's most famous tourist attraction, Silver Springs. For almost half a century his job was taking the photographs, usually black and whites, which publicized the great water park to the rest of the world. ![]() http://www.tampabay.com/features/humaninterest/photographers-love-of-silver-springs-was-crystal-clear/2134127 Jeff Klinkenburg of the Tampa Bay times is a wonderful scribe. His articles are always a good read, this one is no different. Re: Hold your breath for these photos - hal - 08-01-2013 Love that Gidgetish photo.

And show him the photo of Bruce Mozert the next time he asks you what kind of camera you had when you were his age. He would assume the camera was built into the phone.

Weeki Wachee is now a Florida State Park, mermaids and all. Just as kitsch as it ever was. |
