Re: 12 day exposure

Bill,
Very nice picture!
Did you have any difficulty leaving the camera around undisturbed for
that long a period in what seems to be a public space. I'm also struck
by the amount of light coming from the window and how little it seems to
create a backlight problem in the photograph. What kind of film did you
use to be able to make such a long exposure?
