Abandoned Railroad Bridge

An abandoned railroad bridge on the old Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Paul line to Fond Du Lac. Seen in the woods just north of Mayville, Wisconsin. The photo was taken in September of 2016 with a Pentax 67 medium format SLR equipped with a 45 mm f/4 SMC Pentax 67 lens on Ilford FP4+ film. The negative was enlarged optically with a Beseler 23CIIXL enlarger and a 100 mm f/5.6 Schneider Componon-S lens on Ilford Multigrade FB Classic Double Weight Fiber Base silver gelatin photo paper. Processing was done archivally using Kodak chemistry, with a final toning with Kodak Rapid Selenium Toner, treated with hypo clearing agent, and washed in an archival washer.
