Riding the Rails

Riding the Rails
Ever since I can remember I have been fascinated by trains and dreamt of riding the rails. My father took this photo of me shortly before boarding the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railway on a day excursion into the beautiful San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado long, long ago.

This photo was taken by a Kodak Duaflex II film camera with a f/8 Kodar triplet lens using 620 black and white Kodak film, the print scanned by a HP Scanjet G4050.

Great family photo - it's always enjoyable to me to be able to see other people's family pictures. And it's pretty sharp for that Kodar lens! I have a Kodak Duaflex II, but with the Kodet lens - not near as sharp as yours.

Besides inheriting a treasure trove of family photos taken by my father, I also assumed the title of family photographer for my generation. Some day my children will be as intrigued by the photos I leave behind as I am when I see myself caught in that moment of time so long ago.

I know exactly what you mean. My Grandmother, (my Mom's mom) was the family photographer since her husband was an alcoholic and she kicked him out. My Mother was the family photographer and I inherited the position from her. My problem is that I don't have any kids to pass on the family photos to. And I have photographs depicticing seven generations worth. Photographs are precious to me and I wish there was a way to keep them permanently available for the world to see. It seems like the younger generation doesn't like photos memorialized in albums to pass down, but would rather have 99 million snapshots on their cell-phones to lose when it crashes or gets upgraded. I think this generation will be the least remembered during the Photographic era because there won't be as many images survive past their "Aye!" Phone10.
