Thirty Seconds in Tilting Harbour early one morning in August

I had not used my ZeroImage 612 pinhole camera for a couple of years

when I used it one morning before breakfast in Tilting Harbour, on

Fogo Island. The film was Fujichrome 64T Type II (RTPII), a roll

which had expired in May 2006. I did not take good care of it in that

time and it spent several years in the bag with the pinhole camera.

The camera was set at 6 x 12 cm, the largest frame it will do and i

see I neglected to take a hair out of the frame (on the left here);

the hair shows up in several pictures on the roll. The film was

developed as C41 which is a convenience but ensures the colours will

be awry.



I shot each picture at thirty seconds. I have another roll in the

camera now and I think I will try one stop down from that, shooting at

fifteen seconds.
