| Mendenhall Glacier. Shot from Douglas Island. I almost didn't get this shot. My old N8008 had a lot of problems and one of those was jamming at the end of the roll. I of course didn't consider any of that as I was firing away on a gorgeous day in Alaska. My heart sunk when I heard the jam. Fortunately, I had my all manual FM2 with me and I could continue shooting for the rest of the day. This is my premiere experience why you should always have a back up camera with you at all times on important shoots. I had to go back to the cabin, lock myself in the bathroom, stuff a towel at the bottom of the door to block the light and rewind the film by hand back into the cassette. That's how I got the picture above. Nikon N8008, monopod, and 70-210mm. Film--Velvia. |
