Dips
The south end of Arrowhead Lake Road ripples through a series of dips as it approaches the Notch—the pass between Hesperia and Summit Valley—before curving out of sight. The roadway is contoured to match the shape of the shallow arroyos running perpendicular to it, along which rainwater flows from the hillsides on the right to the Mojave riverbed, out of sight on the left.
Happy New Year to all my Flickr friends—thank you for your friendship and all your thoughtful comments in 2019!
Camera: Kodak Pony 828 (1949-1959). Kodak discontinued production of this Pony's native 828 film (35mm roll film with 8 images, each 28 x 40mm) in 1985. I substituted conventional, sprocketed 35mm film, using backing paper cut down from 120 film backing paper according to an online tutorial by Dan Mitchell (www.pheugo.com/cameras/index.php?page=spool828). I didn't include the sprocket holes in my scan; the scanned negative area was thus approximately 24 x 40mm).
Film: 35mm 100 ISO Arista.edu Ultra, developed in Arista Liquid Developer for 6:30 minutes @ 70 degrees, scanned with an Epson V600 scanner.
