It was a clear night. I don't think the wondow was tinted. Portra film gets 
blusih with very long exposures. The monkey skull was by a window after sunset. 
Must have been some twilight plus street lights.

  Hi Bill,

  Excellent work!!  Thanks for posting it.  Naturally, they bring up questions, 
so hear they are:
  - Did any part of the overnight exposure overlap evening or dawn?  Was it 
taken through a tinted window?  Was is cloudy or snowy that night or was it a 
clear sky?
  - The parade photo is simply beautiful.  Anything you want to say about it 
would be great.
  - For the monkey skull still life, was there any other light source besides 
the flashlight?

  Thanks again,
  Tom

I uploaded three images which are the result of exposure times arrived at 
with less than microscopic precision. Specifically,
http://www.???/discussion/upload/overnight was just that, an overnight 
exposure.
http://www.???/discussion/upload/parade the exposure was as long as it 
took for the float to pass me, and with 
http://www.???/discussion/upload/deadbattery I taped a monkey skull to the 
end of a flashlight and exposed it until the battery went dead. It seems to be 
impossible to fatally overexpose something. All you get with more overexposure 
is better detail in the shadows.

The camera is a 2 inch focal length with optimal (purchased and focal
lenghth calculated) pinhole, just a woden box glued to an old 6x7 rollfilm
back.  PortraVC 400 film. I find that overnight exposures that go from about
a half hour after sunset to a half hour after sunrise give good shadow
detail. The parade one was hand held, probably about a 5 minute exposure.

 Great shots!
 Can you give the film and aperature / focal length you used?

 Thanks!
