Burnside Man - 1970






Burnside Man - 1970

West end of Burnside Bridge Portland Oregon. The photos were taken within a few minutes of "Two Pigeons". The man was willing to pose. I don't recall for sure but I think I walked with him to a cafe and paid for his breakfast.

Photos taken with a 200mm lens at f4-f5.6 at shutter speeds like 1/250th. The grain structure shows that the negs were sent to a photofinisher. Tri-X when processed in fresh developer with all baths at 68f had a much tighter grain structure. Tri-X was wonderful film once you learned how to use it.
