I need to have the WWPD date engraved on the inside of my eyeglasses or something. I keep forgetting about it until it's past. :bang: I then say to myself "Next year..." and space on it again.
And, Robert, I've been combining RF and pinhole lately--got a set of M39 macro rings and a metal body cap (modified to use a pinhole)--still fine tuning my exposure times. I posted one early attempt with this set up in Stephanie Brim's thread "I made a pinhole".
I really like your contribution! A lovely abstraction.

This was my WWPD entry. Taken with my abused Mamiya Super 23. It's looking up at a vine maple in my back yard.

Like Rob, I started with the best of intentions for 2006 and somehow it blew past me before I knew it. Well there's always 2007... Nice ones Robert and Gord

I'm still getting exposure guesses wrong too. This was about five seconds.

Jon,

Mmm. I think this board is messing up.

Can you click on the filename, not the icon?

 

[rbiemer]

I can only click on the file name and it takes me to a blank page with this at the top:

Jon, I m as well not able to open your link, don t know the reason (computers are not (yet) very friendly to me...). Exposure has to be based on experience and experience is a sum of mistakes !!! For this reason I go with instant film (polaroid or fuji) in order to check soon. If not ok I can repeat one more time. Than my wife start to get nervous and I have to change location or subject ! Not many chances for a third attempt (also because of cost).
ciao

Hi,
I took a look at your photo and I'd like to know what pinhole camera you used.
By the way, I had the same problem with Jon's link.
Bye
Nico

I use a polaroid kit, probably there are only a few in all italy !
Uso una camera venduta in kit da montare dalla polaroid . Non credo ce ne siano molte !
ciao

This was taken during a meeting (same day as WPPD) with another list group (Olympus OM) in Seattle.

Unfortunately, not one from my fleet of rangefinders.
