Adjust camera to have lens wide open, and touches the fence. Slower film helps and in addition to composing and focusing the camera must be shifted to minimize pattern from fence. This taken at angle down & to right. Normally I would crop but this photo shows it is possible to photograph through chainlink. Note: 2" is easier! Preparation - grading and stakes - for a 3rd siding between CP7-CP10 shown here, but now it has been changed to install a 4th also. The River Line is single track but CP10 is still within yard limit. |
