Photographed with a Zero Image 6x6 Pinhole Camera and Ilford HP5 120 film.

Pinhole Photograph with a Zero Image 6x6

December 07, 2021 in Black and White Film, Nature, Pinhole

It’s been a little while since I’ve put any focus in my pinhole photographs. For some reason this morning I woke up with the desire to change that.

According to my notes this was a five minute long exposure. I recall the scene being very dark as I was standing in a dense forest on a very cold winter day. I’m surprised the leave in the center of the frame came out as sharp as it did.

Not that sharpness is ever really my goal with pinhole photography.

I’ve always liked the Zero Image camera. Granted with pinhole work I tend to prefer something larger, like 4x5 or 8x10 sheet film. But the Zero Image is a great little design that comes in very light in weight that works perfectly when I’m carrying other cameras. I have the Back To Nature version, which I actually think looks nicer than their regular model even though it is cheaper.

Making photographs in blank spaces is always such a different mindset. Not necessarily bad, or good, or better, or worse, just different.

I can pull off a cowboy hat sometimes. I like to walk around in a flannel shirt and a ten gallon hat and a camera attached to my hip. All I'm missing is the horse. Evidently my cool factor only goes to 8 and not to 11.

I always find the lighting on the hottest days to be the most difficult to work with. A little bit of persistence always wins the day though, which seems to be my theme lately.

It was colder than we would have liked, and the light was dimmer than I expected, but with a little perseverance we managed to make it all work. Sometimes that is what you've got to do. If that wasn't the case, we probably wouldn't do it all.

More murals on the inner east side of Portland. So much great art on public view for anyone willing to brave the outdoors.

I'm looking forward to that wonderful light of the fall season. Beautifully subdued from every direction.

Looking into the sun on a summer morning. I'm a little surprised I pulled off the exposure here so well.

Evidently I live in a city "under siege". I don't know, looks rather tranquil to me. 

Portland has its share of problems. Drug abuse and homelessness being two very large ones. Federal Troops and ICE aren't going to do a single thing to he
Quick snapshots after going to a movie.

Exposing my film straight into the sun. I wasn't sure this was going to work, but nature was feeling merciful toward me this day.

Feeling the desire lately to really knuckle down and get work done, which is a good state of mind to be in. Thank goodness it is Friday!

East side photo walk around Portland. Still after all these years one of the best ways to collect my thoughts, breath in some real air, and feel connected with where I live.

Just hanging out in Ashland, soaking up the summer sun, eating a lovely breakfast, and doing way too much shopping.

Those who know me in real life are aware that I am a huge movie and film nerd. One of my early gateways into a cinematic world outside the Hollywood norms was of course David Lynch. 

I don't think younger people quite understand what a treat it was
