A few weeks ago on Tracking the Light, I described my early experiences with Kodak\u2019s Ektachrome LPP (a warm-tone emulsion with subtle color rendition), of which I received a free-sample from Kodak back in August 1993.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the other photos on that roll, was this view exposed shortly after sunrise of Amtrak\u2019s Los Angeles-bound Coast Starlight<\/em> crossing Southern Pacific\u2019s massive Benicia Bridge near Martinez, California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had loaded the film into a second-hand Nikkormat FTN that I fitted an f4.0 Nikkor 200mm telephoto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This slide sat in the dark until I scanned it on October 6, 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
