Don't forget that Sunday 26th April is #WorldPinholePhotographyDay . Get out your tin cans, cardboard boxes or Easter eggs and get some #pinhole photos! I'm lazy so I'll have another go with my ZeroInage 69 or 45.

I'm wondering if a small analogue photography workshop business could work on a small seaside town. Offering group lessons on everything, photo walks doing basics, developing, printing, LF. And intrro to alt process.
Desperately looking for a 5 year IT exit strategy.

I'm underselling it by saying it's like the site, it is,in every regard, a proper book, and in no way feels like print on demand.

I was a bit hesitant on The Light Farm book (by Denise Ross), as it's a Print on demand (I think, from a company called blurb).
I shouldn't have worried. It's extremely good. It's a better editted version of the site content with a few extras. Includes instruction for making an ortho (so green sensitive) emulsion, along with a traditional, and a fast one (up to iso 100 in summer). Also includes some paper emulsions and costing tips (though she has a second book on that).

...today the meter has seemed about right, so it's possible i was just so annoyed at myself for whacking my head on the underside of Yarmouth peer that I convinced myself the rest of the world was intact all wrong.

Does anyone know how fast the light meter on an om1n fails if you're using an active mr9 cell adapter (with an sr43) ? I've done 4 rolls in 4 days and just noticed that my meter is 2 stops under. I'm not sure if I've just pulled all four rolls 2 stops. (3 are c41 I'll be sending off for processing). I usually turn my meter off overnight, and the camera is in my closed bag when not in use.
