1961
BOLIVIA Young
girl with two vintage bicycles in the stone slab patio of
a colonial house in the centre of Cochabamba, Bolivia. This
old house was a fine relic of times past in a city which
then in 1961 was a growing industrial and agricultural centre
for the country.
Camera
Leica lll F with a collapsible Leitz f 5 cm 1:3.5 lens.
Film Plus X Pan at F5.6 - 1/100 second. My film was cut
from bulk rolls and loaded in a re-loadable leica cassette.
It was a convenient low cost way of carrying film but not
ideal. The film had to be loaded in the dark and static
electricity always attracted dust which shows on the negative.
Developed by hand in La Paz using May and Baker Promicrol
at normal dilution.
