 Upload for the film S C.
Backhoes digging the trench for an oil pipeline across the Florida Everglades. This was about 15 miles from the nearest road.
Shot from an airboat, hand held, Canon TX, 50mm FD SSC lens, with E 200 slide film. We were working delivering supplies and shuttling men and equipment with our airboats.
Slide copied with a Chroma Pro slide copy stand using Fuji S3 Pro, and Micro Nikkor 55mm f3.5. The orange cast was in the slide, and I corrected it some, but didn't spend a lot of time with it.

this shot reminds me of a documentary i just saw in tv about workers from the former GDR that helped to built the oil/gas pipeline between russia (siberia) and the ukraine in the 70's. unlike where you worked they had to fight with lots of frozen whater though...;)
your copy stand seems to work pretty well. do you have a photo of it somewhere or a link where you got it from?
