NNG! Royal Gorge in the Royal Gorge

December 25, 2008 06:17PM avatar
The link is to a picture I took when I rode what was left of the Royal Gorge in 1966. By then it was just a Denver to Salida baggage car and coach. I was the only passenger west of Pueblo and they make a stop just for me to get this picture at Hanging Bridge. It was really dark down in the bottom of the hole on a winter day, and the resulting picture on ISO 25 Kodachrome II was basically too dark to be useable until I scanned it and ran it through Photoshop. Photoshop is an amazing tool for saving old irreplaceable pix. The resulting image is not perfect but I'm kinda happy with it. And remember this was originally ng, and then had a third rail before it became NNG!
