Minas Tirith

15 Nov 2024 13
This bare tree, shining in the sunlight, (it was actually much brighter out than it looks like here), reminded me of the one in the final Lord Of The Rings movie, “The Return Of The King.” This was another camera in my collection that I didn’t think I would ever be able to use. Kodak stopped making film for it in the mid-1980s, and the special “J” battery they used is also no longer made. But I did have an old, empty cartridge that I loaded with some 120 film and managed to get it to take a picture. Without the battery, the shutter only had one speed and it was much too fast for the 400 speed film I used. The original film had an ASA rating of 150, so 400 should have been plenty enough speed, but it wasn’t. The camera really needs the battery so that it can set the right shutter speed. One thing I haven’t tried is to push some 400 speed film to 800 or 1600 and see if that works better. The negative for this image came out almost blank, it was so faint. By having to darken it up so much, it came out much too grainy. It looks like a picture from the 1800s! But I did get the camera to produce an actual image.

Live Free Or Die

A Harley-Davidson sticker on the back of my motorhome. Riding motorcycles could also be like the R.V. life and motoring along the open roads. They don’t make film for these cameras any more, and I never shot with one in the first place. So, I have no idea what kind of film it was or what it looked like, or whether it came in a cartridge or pack. I built up the edge of the film plane a little bit by cutting some thin strips of cardboard to glue along where the “negative” area was. I’m pretty sure that, since it was an instant film camera, the film didn’t rest right on those ridges. Most likely a little way off them to achieve the right focus. I used two thinknesses of cardboard on both the top and bottom where the negative sat, but I should have used only one thickness on each side, because the focus is off. The area where the film rides was also slightly smaller than the height of the film gate, so I had to trim a little of the film to get it to fit inside the camera. I ended up cutting through the sprocket holes on one side to get it to fit. But, I got it to produce a picture.

Homestead Of Judge Samuel Elder

15 Nov 2024 14
This historical marker details about the man who founded Eldorado, Illinois. It was almost impossible to get to use this camera. Film is no longer made for it by anyone and nobody even makes the special "J" battery it takes. But I said almost impossible. I happened to have an old, empty instant film cartridge these used and was able to put some cut-down 120 film into it and get it to work. The things we photographers have to do sometimes!

Tomato Plants

14 Nov 2024 15
These are a couple tomato plants I’ve been growing in my library since last July 2022. They're starting to have a few tomatoes ripen and in fact, I picked the first three just last week. It’s been a fun experiment and now there are dozens of blooms and at least a dozen or so tomatoes getting bigger and bigger and ready to ripen. An experiment I can really sink my teeth in!

The Old Graveyard

Taken at The Old Graveyard, located in Carmi, Illinois. The land for the old graveyard was donated by Edwin Webb, upon his death in 1858. However, it was most likely being used before then.

The Blustery Day

22 Jan 2024 112
It rained so much on Friday that it was flooding. And then when the rain stopped, high winds came through. They were so strong, they blew someones trash cart into the middle of my neighbor’s yard. This was my eleventh camera. I picked it up at an estate auction. Come to find out, it was my trash cart that blew into my neighbor's yard.

Cardinal Lane In Pinhole

22 Jan 2024 1 101
The start of the little lane across the street that goes around the houses that line the street where I live. It’s called Cardinal Drive. The reason the picture is crooked is because I used some cut-down 120 film and it's hard to tell in the dark when you're loading it if you got it straight or not. Taken with my eighty-seventh camera.

Pinhole Front Yard

22 Jan 2024 95
The view off the top step of my front porch. The image is not real sharp, maybe I made the pinhole too big – but I finally got a useable picture from this homemade pinhole camera! That’s what matters to me. Taken with my eighty-eighth camera.

Alley At Night

13 Jul 2023 6 219
A small alleyway in the middle of my town photographed at night with a long timed exposure. It was taken with a cheap little point and shoot camera and the street lights caused some lens flares. The camera is broken, so I had to tape it to a tripod and be careful exposing the negative for such a long time.

8 Buses

01 Jul 2023 6 2 268
A row of school buses parked for the summer at our local grade school. I didn’t think I’d ever get to use this camera, because they haven’t made the special type of film it takes in probably 50 years. But, I noticed the shutter worked, even without batteries, so I cut down some 120 film, positioned it carefully where I thought it should be, (in total darkness, of course!), and then shot with it. For the first attempt, I’m really pleased with how it turned out. Now I can mark off another camera in my collection that I’ve used. My goal is to be able to say I’ve used every camera in my collection - all 267 of them. Taken with my hundred and twenty-sixth camera. This image is not cropped, I simply scanned it to all the edges. It turned out the same dimensions as a 35mm negative, so I suppose that’s the shape the original instant prints must have been.

Hit Neighborhood

08 Jun 2023 5 5 260
A picture taken with my new (used) camera that I got on Monday. It's the original brand, Hit, and afterwards, several other companies made lots and lots of copies. They don't take very good pictures, but I did get a decent image out of it. The negatives it produces are 14x14mm - very small. This is a view off my front porch, over toward my neighbor Ginger's house. You can see my 1996 Ford Taurus station Wagon in the middle of the frame.
