Ghostly Chap

[Brian Moore]

Konica Autoreflex TC (the Cheap-As-Chips cam) with Kodak Plus X film. Approximately 40 seconds (counted to 40 at a steady pace) at f5.6. Used a fence post for a tripod and my index finger for a cable release. The guy stood there 15 or 20 seconds.

Developed in Rodinal 1:100 for 90 minutes.

Liking this Brian, I think the ghostly chap adds interest especially as he appears to be enjoying a bit of voyeurism over the non moving couple behind the tree, I am a bit concerned that there is Arnco crash barrier on a footpath, what's that all about?

LOL. I took this picture up on Signal Hill. There is a drop on the other side of the barrier.

Its nice a sharp Brian (discounting the grain), you must of held your finger quite steady on the shutter release. What you need is one of those fancy Sellotape shutter release presser downers to save sore pinkys.

Thanks, Paul.

Never thought of that. Leads me to think that I've discovered another use for duct tape. (Use number 1002!)

Nice Brian. I especially like the way the ghostly figure mirror the person / statue at the back on the right.

 

[Brian Moore]

Thanks, Pete. That "statue" is actually a bloke chatting up a bird.

Duct Tape, or as we Brits we call it, Gaffer Tape. Best invention since the wheel!
