Happy 80th Birthday, Leonard Nimoy of #StarTrek! These photos I took 25 years ago of him in NYC

By Louis Trapani - Posted on 26 March 2011

These photos of Leonard Nimoy were taken in 1986 at a convention in NYC with an analog SLR (put together here now using the Diptic by Peak Systems iOS app) and posted to Instagram. I wish the lighting was better. Oh well. By the way, Nimoy is a photographer himself too.

It is hard to believe he is 80 years old already as is William Shatner who also just turned 80 a few days prior to Nimoy. Using some simple math means that he was only 10 years older than I am now when I took these photos. Jeesh.
