Bridge.img456, with story

Description

In the mid 1980s I rode my bicycle from Seattle, Washington, USA to Eugene, Oregon.  I carried front and rear panniers (bags) along with a rear rack bag carrying my camera, a Super Wide Hasselblad, selenium light meter and small tripod.  Space and weight were critical factors, as I had to carry it all.  The lens has a 90 degree wide angle, with no distortion if set up level.  The lens was a 38mm F4.5 Zeiss Biogon and depending on how much negative you used could be normal or telephoto, instead of its designed ultra wide.

Passing under a large bridge I positioned my camera underneath to record the structure, then continued on to the evening campsite.

Taken with Kodak 400 speed negative color film, I had never printed this image until this week.  When I find the rest of the negatives I will add more to the gallery folder.

Feel free to download, just give me photo credit.
