Les, hello, and hello to all the friends in the large format room.This has
nothing to do with large format, but it does! Please bear with me. I am the
new owner of a 4x5 Graphic View. I love it !! Only done 4 shots, so far,
with it. Back to my first experience with a large format camera obscura.
In the Marines, 1964, on the aircraft carrier, USS Intrepid, Cvs-11. We were
in the Brooklyn shipyards. Power went out all the time. I was on a crapper
in the marine head. power went out. there was an open hole, about 3 inches,
in diameter. on the crapper, i saw on the wall, everything going on on the
pier!
That was a camera obscura!
