An old pump like this was posted a couple of weeks ago, but well after I'd made these photos. I just now got them scanned.
Saltbox and Pump, 2012
Fuji 160C, Sinar F2, 90mm f/5.6 Super Angulon, f/22 at 1/15.
Hand Pump, 2012
Fuji 160C, Sinar F2, 210mm f/5.6 Sinaron-W, f/16 at 1/60.
I used some left swing in the bottom one--it's amazing how little depth of field one has even at f/16 at this range. The top one got significant right shift--that's all. I didn't want my reflection in the window. I did want the flag reflected in the window, and I wanted to see into the opening on the pump just a bit. But I spent a while trying to align with those shingles, only to finally realize that no two rows are parallel and the windows are definitely not level and plumb. It's understandable--the house was built in the middle 1700's out of wood from shipwrecks.
