This is the first photo I've ever shot with my new toy - a RealitySoSubtle 6x17 pinhole camera. I shot the photo on expired Portra 400NC that bought with no wrapper from a grab-bag (I save it for test rolls like this, where I'm not even sure if I know how to thread the film into the camera). The exposure is about 75 seconds, calculated via a lot of guesswork concerning how damaged the film is, what its long exposure reciprocity profile is, how dark it was, what the camera was pointing at, and my mood at the time (it was "zesty").
This is a highway overpass near my office, which I picked to photography because it was the most interesting subject I could think of that was close enough I could reach before sunset.
My favorite film lab can't scan 6x17, so after they developed it, I scanned this using my Fujifilm digital camera with the negative taped to a lightbox tracing panel, and color corrected in Lightroom.
I'm a big fan of any camera that slows me down and the slower the better. If my pinhole camera encourages me to sit a spell on the cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean and just breathe, I am all for it. I am also a big fan of my legs and feet, totally undervalued photographic accessories. I could still be a photographer without them but it would be a challenge. I know some photographers who don't have the use of their legs and I admire their perseverance greatly.
This was an image off my first or second roll with my new Reality So Subtle 6x6 pinhole camera.

A little something for Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day tomorrow. I hope to get out and make some images tomorrow. If so, maybe I (or at least my shadow) will make an appearance in one.

I woke up this morning, looked out the window and saw an eerie golden glow in the atmosphere caused by the numerous wide spread wildfires in California. I thought it was apocalyptic and couldn't focus on my daily routine. It seems like the entire West Coast has gone up in flame. I have even heard Medford, the closest town to Crater Lake in Oregon is under warning for evacuation.
Then later in the evening, I received a notification from my film development lab that my photos were ready. So this is one of the first few images I took a few weeks back with my pinhole camera. Holy Mary, full of grace, have mercy on us.
