Don't tell me you didn't do one or two crazy thing when you were in love with something or someone. :-) Guillermo, I won't tell you the crazy things I did with my spouse... -:)) But, actually, it's my love affair with photography which helped me through a devastating period in my life 9 years ago when I was forced to take early retirement from my job as an economist because of major health problems. This love affair is still just as strong and became even stronger when I discovered pinhole. It got me to do some really crazy things as well - including many long lonely nights out with my camera in pretty bad weather conditions doing night photography (lens, at the time)... And the joy experienced when you see the results coming out in the darkroom goes far beyond the discomfort experienced during the shooting. In fact, that feeling is there every time you click the shutter, when you know that you've captured a great picture! Alas, it seems that these days the mind is still strong (and crazy...) but the body just won't follow as far as before... Darn it... One of the things I really like about this group -as opposed to other groups I've been involved with- is the underlying crazyness of many of its members when it comes to experimenting with pinhole photography and breaking the rules... Each week seems to bring a new crazy idea and this is very stimulating, indeed! -:)) Perhaps we could start a thread on the most crazy thing which pinhole photography got us to do...

Guillermo, The picture mentioned in your article looks like one of the Big Banks' doors in Toronto. Is that the case? It belongs to the a Greek Ortodox church in the Don Mills area. Hmmm... 19 degrees below freezing (Celsius or Farenheight?) sounds just about like the kind of weather you would get on a really bad day in Toronto Celsius, but still freezing cold. Why would anyone want to do 55 minutes exposures in that kind of weather? I was in my honey moon with pinholing, back then!! Don't tell me you didn't do one or two crazy thing when you were in love with something or someone. :-) I hope that your body was well covered! -:)) Had car parked and running near by so from time to time I went inside to warm up a bit. Love wasn't that deep after all!!. in Montréal, where the temperature is currently 10 Celsius below freezing (about minus 30 Fareinheight) and not too happy to have to go out shopping with his lovely wife when I could be staying relaxing in the warmth of my home...! -:)) I don't care if it is -10 or +25 celsius, I just don't go shopping, I just don't go to malls. BTW, -10 celsius are +14 Farenheight. Guillermo Guillermo

Sent: Thursday, December 28, 2006 9:32 AM Subject: Re: [pinhole-discussion] Recommended Exposures onto Paper I'm also interested in knowing about paper's reciprocity. Is it anything like film? I know it's made for longer exposures but I think that just means the curve is a little further out in time. Does anyone have information on this? Larry, There is a book(let) call something like Minimal aperture photography, from it I took the reciprocity correction I have used with some success.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Recommended Exposures onto Paper
Hi, Someone once told me that the ISO P, the one we find with the paper instructions, is 1/100 of the film ISO. So, using the Ilford paper as an example, w/o. filter the paper is ISO P 500 giving us aprox. ISO 5 for film meters. Using filters for multicontrast, the ISO P might be 200 or 100 thus giving us a meter setting of ISO 2 or 1. If it is true, well I haven't tested yet, but if someone did, I'd love to hear. Joao I would use iso 6 for most papers.I would also recomend rc for the negative.
