Sleeping Four year Old :Heavenly SLEEP
notes:
A Few Years ago I Boarded a Amtrak Passenger Train enroute from Greenville, S.C. to New Orleans, Louisiana. It was a experience of meeting great people and getting an occassional Black and White Photograph.
On my way back to one of the dining "cars" I came upon this very unique scene. I wanted a B&W photo, but as luck would have it I only had Ektachrome 64 film handy. SO, I carefully shot a couple of exposures, hand held with my trusty Fujica ST 801 and wide angle 35mm Tamron lens. The exposure was approximately 1/15 second @ f/6.7 (handheld). From that Ektachrome slide was then made into a Black and white internegative
from which I made a 7"x10" Print on Agfa Paper, #3 contrast. The photograph is now mounted on a Archival 11x14 mount board with window mat attached. OHHH, Heavenly, Restful Sleep!!
