1961 La Paz Bolivia A British made Vulcan steam locomotive no 408 crosses a bridge over a road close to the FCAB (Ferrocarril de Antofagasta a La Bolivia) main station at an altitude of 3,750 metres.This picture shows the steep hillsides surrounding the city of La Paz. Today (2015) they are covered totally by low cost housing.

Camera Leica lll F with a collapsible Leitz f 5cm 1:3.5 lens. Film Kodak Panatomic X at F5.6 - 1/200 second. The camera was on loan and 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 with water from the village well.
