In an unposed 1940s documentary moment, a waterworks chemist holds a glass testing vial up to the bright afternoon sky beside a red steel sluice gate. Taken on a Leica IIIc with a 50mm Summitar lens and ASA 10 Kodachrome, the image pairs vibrant primaries with the chemical drift of an aged print, where shadows lift to milky grey and highlights shift toward acid yellow and magenta.
