Gas Pump, Maryhill, Washington

©2024 Gary L. Quay

 

Nestled among vinyards in the eastern Columbia Gorge is the tiny hamlet of Maryhill. It's one of those places that you don't wander past because the roads that go there don't go anywhere else. To me, that would seem to be a slice of heaven. The BNSF railway runs just to the north, so that would bring a little excitement.

 

This little defunct gas station sits across from a church. I like old gas pumps, and this one is in relatively good condition.

 

I tried using the CFV 100C back with the 907X camersa for the first time. I used an old V series lens with an extension tube. The camera does not particularly like this, but it is possible. The sensor builds the image from top to bottom in this mode, as opposed to all at once like it would witrh the 500CM or Flexbody. This is because it does not recognize that it has a lens attached, so it defaults to turning the sensor on only when the shutter is triggered. It makes for some interesting compostions, none of them usable.

 

Camera: Hasselblad 907X / CFV 100C.

Lens: 80mm Zeiss Planar
