. . . I was a young man in grad school in the Hoosier State. One snowy day in
February or March 1969 I had some free time + film in my almost brand new
Nikkormat, and there was fresh snow. So instead of walking to my office for a
day of reading, I drove my wife to her teaching job in a rural school district,
and then drove around the backroads. This shot has long been one of my
favorites. I worked hours over multiple sessions in the darkroom trying to get
a print that I liked, finally got one that was good enough, framed it with
reclaimed wood from an old shed on my grandfather's farm, and it has been with
me since.
Flash forward to last week when I was hauling stuff from the storage locker and
moving/sorting stuff on my shelves, all in preparation for a yard sale. I came
across my box full of old negatives. Rummaging through the box earlier this
evening I happened on the roll containing this shot. A few minutes of set-up, a
few minutes of scanning, and my image was in Lightroom ready to process. A few
minutes of fiddling and I have a version of the image at least as good as any
of my many trial prints. The good old days were good in many ways, but modern
technology is wonderful!
