Foolish gibberish
I made a short video to show you how I have turned my small, under-the-stairs bathroom into the tiniest of darkrooms. I wanted to show you this because I often hear people say that they don’t have space for a darkroom. I think that even if you have a very small space you can make a darkroom. Mine is temporary. I set it up and take it down as needed and it only takes about 5-10 minutes to set up and take down.
Here is what I have and what you might need.
I have found myself with a small collection of found negatives. I scanned them and thought it would be fun to share them on my blog.
here is one my friend Lacey sent me. It is a large format negative. In the note she says that it is a 1950s San Francisco negative by Dick Mercer.
I love this photo. It reminds me of a very fun day with my pinhole crew (we are calling ourselves Pinhole Mayhem). For this particular outing we rented the portrait studio at Newspace and tried our hand at Pinhole studio portraits. It was super fun.

Geeky bits:
This was shot with my Zero 4×5 on the 50mm configuration. I used my Graflex ’23’ 120 back and used Acros 100 film. I think the exposure was a minute and a half.
The silver crescent
Is but a slice of what really is.
Wait.
In a moment
The moon will be full again.
