horse chestnut

Taken with the Kodak Instamatic 500 camera that I first used in week 61 of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:

Old 126 cartridge reloaded with Agfa Vista ISO 200 35mm film. No backing paper was used, and the windows on the cartridge and the camera were blacked out. Proper 126 film has one perforation per frame, and in most cameras, including this one, the sprocket hole is important in the correct spacing of the exposures. I knew this would result in some overlapping, which can be interesting, but for some of the frames I compensated for this by firing the shutter with the lens covered.

Processed in the Tetenal C41 kit and scanned to include the sprocket holes
