Mine Cars

Here's another new one.  This is shot of some abandoned mine cars at the Greenhill Mine Site in Crowsnest Pass.  I took this shot last March, when I was down in the area dropping off my prints for the gallery exhibition at Lebel Mansion Gallery in Pincher Creek.  This shot was taken with my Ebony view camera and a Fujinon 240mm lens.  This lens is about equivalent to an 80mm lens in smaller formats, so a portrait lens.  It was rather difficult to hold the depth of field with this long focal length and I had to stop the lens down to F36.0 and use a long shutter speed.  Fortunately nothing was moving, and it worked out nicely.  This negative was Kodak Tri-X Pan 320, 4" x 5", processed in PMK.
