The little town of Eagle Bridge is a eerily fascinating place.<\/p>\n

Here the old Boston & Maine station survives as a relic, complete with the mast for the old train order signal.<\/p>\n

At Eagle Bridge the Battenkill Railroad\u2019s former Delaware & Hudson line connects with Pan Am Southern\u2019s Boston & Maine route via a steeply graded junction. The old station sits between the tracks.<\/p>\n

I made these views the other day using my Rollei Model T (with Zeiss Tessar lens) loaded with Fomapan Classic (ISO 100).<\/p>\n

I processed the film with a Jobo processing machine and Kodak D76 (mixed 1 to 1 with water) as my primary developer. For added shadow detail, presoaked the film in water-bath mixed with a drop of Kodak HC110.<\/p>\n

This was the first time I tried Fomapan 100 in the 120 size format (the Rollei makes 2 1\/4 inch square images). These negatives demonstrate\u00a0great detail, but they needed some nominal adjustment in post processing using Lightroom to manipulate contrast\/exposure.<\/p>\n

All things being equal I like my chemical process to yield negatives that don\u2019t require post\u2013processing adjustments. However, that level of refinement usually requires a bit of experimentation when using an unfamiliar emulsion type.<\/p>\n
