El pont i el gual de La Salut / Ways to cross
IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE
Foto presa amb una Folmer & Schwing Graflex Auto 5x7, made c.1911-1915; objectiu Kodak Projection Anastigmat f6.3; Fomapan 100 en format 5x7, revelat amb HC110.
Aquesta càmera funcionava però amb certes dificultats. La vaig enviar a netejar i ajustar (CLA) a Graflex Parts, de Duluth, Minnesota (USA), i ara va perfecte.
El Pont de La Salut, sobre el riu Ripoll, a Sabadell. Sembla que la Via Augusta, la mismissima via romana que anava de Gades a Roma, creuava el Ripoll (rivo populetum, "riu de pollancres") per aquí.

Picture taken with a Folmer & Schwing Graflex Auto 5x7, made c. 1911-1915; Kodak Projection Anastigmat f6.3 lens; Fomapan 100 in 5x7 sheet, developed with HC110.
This camera worked but some issues (mainly the shutter stuck in the release), so I sent it for a CLA to Graflex Parts in Duluth, Minnesota (USA), and now it works beautifully.
La Salut bridge, over the Ripoll, in Sabadell. It looks like the old Roman road from Gades (Cadiz), in Hispania, to Rome, crossed the Ripoll river in this very place. Ripoll comes from the latin riuo populetum, "poplar river". It's known that the Via Augusta had a stop in Arrago, now La Salut church, outside Sabadell.
