Where are good places to get cheap passport photographs taken? One 
of those automated booths would be fine. North Columbus preferred.
I know plenty of places do them, but I haven't found one that I
didn't think was a bit expensive for such a commodity service.

How about Kinkos?  They do passport photos.

Thanks for your very fast response! I went along today and got them
done. Maybe there's nowhere cheap, then? For four photographs, Kinko's
charged me $22.36. I could have got four in Britain for three pounds.

K2PZH? Is that amateur radio or something?

And chances are that someone with a good digital camera could have
taken and printed photos cheaper, but with more hassle factor.


Anyway, you now have them.   If the paport is good for 10 years,
that's $2.24/year.

But when you find out how expensive renewing a passport is
these days, the photo price will seem small :-(

Right.   Original novice class license KN2PZH dates to 1954 and K2PZH
a few months later.
