Reading by candlelight in February 1990

We *did* have electric lights, and I think there must be one over my

shoulder in this picture as the chair's back casts a shadow on the

tablecloth. But maybe we had another candle across the room. I cannot

remember all the details, but my notes do say I'd bought the film

(Kodak Vericolor VPH 400 in a 120 roll) cheap because it was outdated.

And they also say this was f/5 at a half second. The Bessa didn't

have an especially sharp lens, but, used in the middle of its range,

as here, it was not bad.
