A sardine cannery sorter in a faded puff-sleeve dress mends a heavy hemp fishing net along a sunlit California pier. Shot on a Rolleiflex Automat with Kodak Verichrome Pan film pushed two stops, the square-format black-and-white print shows coarse silver grain and rich, naturalistic midday shadows. Burnt-in darkroom edges and deep blacks anchor the weathered timber and tangled cordage.
