Take a look at this old-timer. No longer good enough for This Modern World™.

A little like your correspondent, who remembers watching its construction from that truss you see in the background to the left.

A landmark with steep approaches, exciting to drive over in a blizzard.

DULUTH — More than $1 billion in federal funding has been secured to move ahead with construction on the aging John A. Blatnik Bridge, a high-traffic connector between Duluth and Superior, Wis.

Boise River Greenbelt Truss Bridge

The bold red ironwork of the historic bridge stands out against a backdrop of golden leaves and sunlit trees, while a clear path draws the eye deeper into the peaceful landscape. The composition balances strength and serenity — industrial heritage framed by nature’s seasonal brilliance.

Experimenting with scanning methods some more. The first version of this image is using a flatbed scanner with a suspended battery-powered LED shop light. The second is with my phone and taking a picture with my phone, using the Kodak scanning app. In both versions I cropped and auto-adjusted with #irfanview.
The scanner version is definitely better. The fact that the phone version has curved edges is weird; there's a sheet of plexiglass over the film so it's definitely not actually doing that.
Neither my scanner nor my phone are particularly good.

Kodak makes an "official" version of my rigged-up lightbox-and-phone holder scanning thing (https://www.kodak.com/en/consumer/product/printing-scanning/film-scanners/6x6-mobile-film-scanner/). Results probably depend on your phone. If anyone's using this and getting good results, I'd be interested to hear what kind of phone you have.
