Cup Holder
With four good-sized mulberry trees on the little ranch—two behind the house, and two in front—I generally keep fairly busy with leaf raking once the cold weather sets in during late autumn. I try to rake a little most days, after feeding the animals and cleaning the corrals, and have a second morning cup of coffee as I work. A nice practice, but where to put the cup between sips? Raking in front of the house beside the driveway one morning, I set my enamel mug on the flat rear deck lid of the Corvair, giving new meaning to the term "car cup holder." I liked the look of the mug beside the distinctive engine ventilation slots, so I spent one of the last pair of exposures on the roll in the Exa on the little still life :-)
Camera: Ihagee Exa IIb (1964-1966, with Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 50mm f/2.8 lens). The Exakta's little sister :-)
Film: 35mm Kodak Plus-X Pan (expired 1998, rolled from bulk), developed in Arista Liquid Developer (1+9) for 5:30 minutes @ 68 degrees, and scanned with an Epson V600 scanner.
