52:320TXP – Week 14 – Light Leaks and Railroads

52:320TXP - Week 14 - Rails

So despite the fact I was using an untested film holder that caused light leaks, I’m still pretty happy with this shot! I found this rail line in the rural areas surrounding my town and was immediately drawn to, behind me, an old metal bridge that takes the road above the right-of-way. It reminds me of Cobalt, ON, but without the silver mine. After a long hard cold winter, it’s nice to have some warm weather (I was out in my spring jacket) and some bright blue skies. Always, Always, Always test out your film holders on ‘throw-away’ sheets before putting your expensive Tri-X in them. Oh well, the leaks kind of work in this case on second glance.
