These colorful pictures were taken by Chris Protopapas that documented everyday life of Chile, Peru, and Panama Canal in 1974.
“My first photography expedition, working on a Greek freighter, summer 1974. All taken with a 1957 Nikon S3 and a variety of color slide films.
My home for the summer of 1974. My father worked for a Greek shipping company, and got me a “job” onboard. I really was just along for the ride, and my uncle was the captain, so I couldn’t really get into trouble. My first photography expedition, with my 1957 Nikon S3 I had just bought a few months before.”
