This time with some Ilford Delta 400 sheet film that expired in 2000. I've had the film so long that I don't remember where I got it.
The film has been sitting in its original box in a file cabinet just waiting and waiting...
Granted it's kind of rough looking and the emulsion has some kind of weird grit action going on, but for testing a camera it's just about perfect.
The Sun was off to the upper left and glinted and glared into the little pinhole which is okay by me because I like to know how teeny little holes handle such powerful rays of sunlight.
I like the swishy, gushyness of the look and sometimes it works well in a photo...other times it just looks messy. I think the example above is borderline.
The exposure was 10 seconds
The sheet of film was developed in home brew caffenol for 7.5 minutes.
Enjoy your day!
Very cool image. I'm always amazed at how each pinhole reacts different to sun flare. And the artifacts of the outdated film are cool, very organic-looking.
