The Summer weekend crafts and produce market at the Albuquerque Rail Yards always brings out a big crowd. I rarely buy any of he offerings, but I have photographed the place with several of my old film cameras. I think this is the first time I have used my pinhole camera there.
All the pictures were made with my compact SLIK tripod which has served me well for about. 25 years. With the legs fully extended and the center column raised, the camera. gets close to chest level. Collapsing the legs and reversing the center column allows shooting at ground level.
I managed to shoot seven of the available eight frames on a roll of 120 Kentmere 100 before running out of energy. The outdoor shots were two second exposures. The good indoor light from the big banks of windows allowed exposures of around five seconds. I finished off the roll the next morning with a shot of one of Margaret's houseplants, with a fifteen second exposure.
