Rio Grand Zephyr, April 1983, South Canyon,West of Glenwood Springs, Colorado
$699.00 – $1,099.00
In stock
Image made April, 1983, in a rainstorm with a 90mm f5.6 Schneider Super Angulon lens on a 4×5 Anniversary Speed Graphic camera using Kodak Ektachrome Film. Under far less than ideal weather conditions the west-bound Rio Grande Zephyr makes its way in South Canyon just west of Glenwood Springs. The gray sky in the original photograph was without texture or character. To add drama to the image a photograph was made of clouds some days later which was then combined with the photograph of Rio Grande F-9 Engine Number 5771 to create this image of the iconic F-9 diesel engine, now on display at the Colorado Railroad Museum.
