An addition to my library


Picked up a new art book from my recent visit to the Colorado Photographic Arts Center. We'd gone to see this exhibit at the gallery.

Pinhole day Extra


I found an extra shot I'd lost track of. So that makes a total of seven. 

This is a group of re-enactors in their camp. 17th century camping in snow is not a lot of fun! 

Specifics: Image made with a Travelwide 4x5 camera and a f/285 pinhole, film is Fuji Neopan Acros 100 4x5 sheet film. Normal development with Clayton F76+ developer.
