The balaclava I'm wearing is so old and worn from use it's no longer is capable of smooshing anything. It's taken years to get it this comfortable. I got a new one a couple of years ago, but it's so tight I can't wear my sunglasses when I have it on, so it stays unworn in the bike box. > I had Steve pegged as one of those 19th century souls who prefers not > to smile for the camera. Actually, those 19th century souls were holding still for very long exposures (20 seconds to 5 minutes). The neck braces that held their heads still were artfully concealed in the photos. Those collodion wet plates had an ISO speed of 6 - 10, and Daguerreotype was even slower. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
