Super Ricohflex, 1958.View attachment 188389 View attachment 188390

I shot the above image with a Super Ricohflex in 1976 when i was 13, and the photo shows my dad far left, and my brother Brian and my grandfather instructing Brian how to navigate the Columbia River using the shore channel markers. I FROZE the film and developed it around 10 years after having shot it. I scanned the negative about 7 years ago, when I was about 50.

This is priceless. Thanks for sharing. Great shot, too. I love the variety of hats - and the lack of life jackets!

It IS an Awesome shot. It does indeed capture “the decisive moment”. It also has that Grapes of Wrath look. Great Photo .(PS though I live 3000 miles away I fear the Columbia River. I’m sure many others do also. You can “feel” that fear through this image.
