Description
The sun sets on the last days of steel production as a halted locomotive approaches toward the Bethlehem Steel. I captured this image when the steel was still in operation via the Minsi Trail Bridge in Bethlehem Pennsylvania USA.
A quick note, This exposure is from June 1991. It was done using a simple Ptx. K1000 on a tripod. Sorry for the hole I cut in the chain link. Done 4 years from the complete stoppage of Steel production. Many of the buildings seen here, became dark soon after this photo. Hence the reason for this image being in my "Never Again" collection.
I did however, repair the whole that I cut. Not like the many whom followed,.. Others whom attempted to match or out do my exposure.
