Re: Pinhole nude question

Hi Catherine,

Thanks for saying you like my work, and I'm glad to
hear that looking at it was of help. Thought you and
anyone else interested might find it useful to know
that those three nudes (including the one you mention
specifically) were all done indoors usually with one
500 Watt light. The film was T-Max 100. Exposures with
a lens were usually 4 to 16 seconds at f=16 if I
remember correctly. The pinhole exposures usually were
about 20 minutes at the least, often more like 30, and
sometimes as long as 40 minutes. It's not a
coincidence that the pinhole poses are mostly
reclining. That's about the only way to stay still for
that length of time. Often the model would fall
asleep! I can remeber a session or two during which I
set up the pinholes, let them go, spent 10 or fifteen
minutes doing lens photos, and still had time to get
out a sketchbook and do some drawings before finishing
the pinhole exposures and setting up a new pose!

Colin
