I loaded Little Guinness with Fuji Acros 100 for the EAA Fly-in. I thought it's famous lack of reciprocity failure might result in reasonable exposure times inside the vendor hangars. Turns out one minute is as bad as five in a crowded aisle with lots of moving aviators.
The camera was in my pocket quite a bit for the summer and fall, usually while I was using another, medium format camera, and the film remained unexposed.
Finally, I resorted to an old game, taking pictures of whatever fell in the path of the sunbeams in our house. I would swear I was just going to finish the roll and then after five or so exposures, it would again sit idle for weeks.
The unusual northern sunbeams, which are reflections off the neighbor's window, fall on the bouquet on the dining room table.
The sunbeams often fall in the middle of the carpet, so things need to be put there to take advantage of that. The bronze raven normally keeps watch from under the television.
Makeup always comes in such nice packaging.
Bubble bath too.
The animalmorphic lens atop a jar of cotton.
Beauty tools.
I've never thought to put the camera on the philodendron's shelf before.
Except for the meteorite I got for my birthday, probably the oldest thing in the house - an ammonite fossil from the Cretaceous.
A sunbeam falls on the door to the sunroom casting the shadow of the chair's arm.
The bronze raven atop the small glass table.
A folded throw atop Sarah's footstool.
Real pumpkins still under the kitchen table.
The red/cyan glasses I'm wearing in the blog profile picture, which I keep next to the couch in case NASA, ESA or
René Vonk post something I need to look at.
The Apple TV remote in it's easy-to-find white non-slip rubber case.
The bottom of the sunroom door.
A birthday bouquet.
The metalwork under the kitchen table.
In order to complete
the front portico restoration, I painted the storm door in the basement, illuminated by my hat mounted LED's to make it easier to see what I'm doing.
From the other direction. It took a long time and then the shutter accidentally remained open for another four hours. It must have gotten bumped at some point.
Little Guinness has a .17mm hand-drilled pinhole 24mm from a 24x36mm frame. The Acros 100 was semi-stand developed in Rodinal 1:100.
