A week or so back I attempted the unthinkable; a pinhole image in the pouring rain and freezing cold.
Exposure time was a full ten minutes and it sure as hell wasn't warm out. During the exposure, some rain drops made their way into the film back and streaked down the exposed film. At first this kind of pissed me off but ultimately I like what it did to the negative.
Looking at the shot, I'll never forget the conditions I attempted this under and what the poor model had to endure.
In the case of the pinhole it's pretty much an 8x10 wooden box. No lens and I a tape the film into the back in a darkroom. So yeah, I guess technically that is a "camera". haha.
Congratulations! This beautiful image has been included in a feature on pinhole photography at #fineart-photography[link] Please visit and leave a comment, if you feel so inclined.
Beautiful. I love the stories behind photos, it makes them all the more incredible. I also love film because of the unpredictability, which is clear in the raindrop streaks. I think it adds something really nice to the image. Wonderful!
i love the water run marks...really makes the picture what it is...miserable...right? and of course kudos to the model for enduring a ten minute lay down in public and in poor weather... this is my FAVORITE thus far.
