I just scanned some of my Pinhole Day photos, so I thought I'd start the weekend off with one.
Paper negative on the PINH5AD camera with the 90mm cone.

This was my Pinhole Day submission.  The weather was bad for pinhole photography, cloudy and some light rain.  I had to shield my camera from the rain a few times.  To reduce the exposure time for each shot I shortened the focal length to reduce the aperture.  Unfortunately that sacrificed the sharpness of the image. 

Camera - Voigtländer 116 Roll Film Camera, the lens was replaced with a pinhole.
Pinhole - 0.5mm,
Focal length - 95mm,
Aperture - f/190,
Exposure - 8 minutes,
Film - Kodak Panatomic-X 70mm film, expired March, 1972.
Development - Beer

In early 1981, I borrowed a Pen FT and, based on the images likely the 38/1.8, and shot half a roll of Pan X. I knew I had the film in my archive but hadn't scanned it and had managed to forget most of the images. I rediscovered it this week when looking for a completely unrelated image for a friend. Serendipity strikes again!

Yeah, I was a really sad day for me too. We had about 30 minutes of sunshine, but after that it started to pour.
As for me, I was stuck with a 90mm cone and a 0.2mm shutter (f/225). So I really had to hurry, especially since we could see the clouds moving in.
Maybe it's going to be better next year... and maybe my nightmare 35mm pinhole will be completed by that time and give me something else to use.

Three nice shots there, guys!
I was out this week testing an uncoated Zeiss Sonnar 1.5/50 from 1937. Not much contrast although I had a yellow filter on it. But it was an overcast day with rather flat light. Both of these were shot at f8.0.

I tried to get some old decaying hut on my way back from work last weekend and this was the best I got. Not very exciting but enough to keep me happy.
