About the Pictures:
This are pictures of a bridge construction site. They were shoot in 1998. The pictures show parts of the bridge, built for the Autobahn A94 in Bavaria/Germany near Altötting. The picture as you can see are only details of the construction. I have no pictures of the whole site. This was perhaps my detail and structure phase XD.

Short History about the Bridge:
The Building Time was from 1997 to 2000. It is constructed as an composite steel bridge. For Germany it is the beam bridge with the largest pillar span. The spans of the five-field of this 470 m long structures are 95 m - 154 m - 95 m - 68 m

Equipment:
Analog Camera: Konica Z-up 135 super Zoom 38-135mm compact camera
Photographic film: Illford B&W 125.
Scanner for the negative: Epson perfection 1240

Some more Information’s:
I didn’t break in the site, it was open for guests XD
The Camera was bought in the year 1997.
Although it is a low budget and shitty compact camera, it made decent photos, I like the depth effect.
I developed the negative film myself about 20 years ago.
I recently scanned them. The Scanner is from 2001, an can be run with Windows 10, slow but working just fine.
The only digital treatment to these photos is scanning, no photoshop.

I’m very sorry if my grammar or spelling upsets you. Hope the pictures speak for themselves.
