They left the sternwheeler and packing three children their belongings and camera equipment they secured a camping spot. However their daughter Norma climbed on an old stump to get a better view and “put her foot in a yellow-jacket nest and the way she climbed down from there and screamed was enough to bring everyone from the other camps . . . we fought yellow-jackets and ran a half mile to keep up with Norma.†The family does manage to find an abandoned house to camp in manage their breakfast and then hike and travel along the rim into Oneonta Gorge and decided later to return back home “on account of Elvah’s back.â€Reck records one of his many photo shoot excursions when on April 3 1910 he takes off with fellow enthusiast and machinist Ed Leppert to take photos at Cazadero OR at the time a stop on the Estacada Interurban Railway Line of the PRL&P Co. catching Train No 62 shot logging pictures below Boring OR and then fishing near the Clackamas River at Eagle Creek OR.

Bert writes they secured a “Furnished Tent†for $ 7.00 for the week and began shooting photos along the beach of the bathers the ocean the Hotel Moore and the breakers and did some crab fishing. One of the days the sun was out so Ed and Bert “loaded up our stereo camera & tripod and started down the beach.†They trekked along the sand and rocks “watched a number of porpoises or ‘sea hogs’ sporting in the Ocean a short distance off shore. . . and wished for a telephoto lens.†By the time the pair had lugged their camera to the lighthouse the fog had rolled in obscuring the scenery.

Acquaforte misure: mm 305 x 196 Vedutista e incisore italiano. Si forma all'Accademia di Belle Arti di Bologna dove è allievo dello scenografo Valentino Solmi (1810-1877). Alla fine degli anni Settanta compie il primo viaggio a Venezia, l’incontro con questa città è fatale e Brugnoli la elegge a sua nuova dimora. Qui si specializza nell'acquerello riproducendo gli angoli e gli scorci dell’amata città. Nel 1861 si reca a Londra per l'Esposizione degli acquerellisti italiani e partecipa a numerose altre mostre sia all'estero che in Italia. Brugnoli viene ricordato anche per le sue numerose acqueforti caratterizzate da un tratto arioso e una cura maniacale per i particolari. Perfeziona uno stile personale che traduce sulla lastra le abbaglianti luci e le atmosfere poetiche della laguna che egli coglie con il suo occhio emozionato. In questa stampa Brugnoli rappresenta uno scorcio della laguna in particolare il Rio di San Stae nel Sestiere di Santa Croce, chiamato anche Rio Mocenigo o Rio della Rionda. Le acque increspate realizzate con un tratto lungo riflettono gli edifici posti lungo i lati del canale; sulla sinistra una rigogliosa vegetazione si arrampica su un muro fino a raggiungere un balcone e nasconde gran parte di un campanile che occupa a sinistra lo sfondo. Gli edifici sulla destra invece sono in ombra, non ricevono l'abbagliante luce che, dall'alto invade la composizione e che crea un'atmosfera di calma e silenzio, di serenità. La veduta è animata anche da un gondoliere che nel fondo del canale si allontana sulla sua gondola. Rispetto all'esemplare conservato presso la Raccolta Adalberto Sartori di Mantova, firmato e datato 1929, mancano alcuni segni nella zona bianca a sinistra del balcone; si tratta dunque di una prova di lavoro, di uno stato antecedente quello definitivo. Impressione eccellente, dai neri intensi, splendido effetto di velatura visibile soprattutto in primo piano e nel cielo. Una sapiente pulitura dell'inchiostro pone in risalto le zone invase dalla luce solare. Ottimo stato di conservazione. Ampi margini oltre la battuta del rame. A matita nel margine inferiore, oltre l'immagine: Rio di San Stae, incisa ed impressa da E. Brugnoli/ 7.1.45 e una firma incomprensibile. Bibliografia: A. M. Comanducci, Pittori italiano dell'Ottocento, Milano 1934.
