Little Wings with Hamilton Stop

Posted by Rabbit (Richmond, United States) on 5 November 2007 in Art & Design.

When my friend Cabbagehead first said infiread film to me - the photo like the one above was what i was imagining. She then when on to explain what that kind of film did and well - its nothing like the photo above except maybe both photos run the same cool factor. So the title of this picture may be a bit odd.. however let me explain. Of course most of you guys are familiar with Little Wings - thats my darling little Angle pinhole camera sitting toward the back, right of the photo. The Hamilton Stop comes from the photo being developed in the tray there. Thats what the title of that pinhole shot will be.


i looked for my spooky Halloween stuff but i gave up - - i had to much freelance & other things to worry about. Such as the GREAT big POT of baby Lima beans i have on the stove. Speaking of which <getting up in a quick hurry to go look at the stove and stir my concoction> ok it seems to be fine - its taking a while to come to a rolling boil but thats ok. i'll try & be patient (ya know come to think of it - i have patience with nearly EVERYTHING else except cooking) huh that quite odd. Anyway as i was saying i'm making lima bean soup, i even made a johnnycake to go with it. Thats what it's called when you make corn bread in one big baking pan instead of corn bread muffins.


So is anyone wondering what i did to this photo? Great - me too - let me know when you figure it out.
Ok i'm kidding i have the directions for ya.
