Primitive photography

Hello,

First of all I’ve been lurking this forum for a while and want to thank you all for providing such helpful information.

My interests are in primitive photography; pinhole photography, home brew darkroom processing and the Wollaston landscape lens. I have a background as a physicist and engineer so I’m more of a technician than an artist.

As an introduction to what I like to do, here is a link to a web page I did on the Wollarston landscape lens you might enjoy: https://sites.google.com/view/wollas...cape-lens/home

I’ll share similar pages for my pinhole and darkroom stuff.

Welcome Michael!

I enjoyed the page you prepared. Keep them coming!

Do you have some photos somewhere? Might be interesting.

Here is a 4x5 photo taken with something pretty close to the Brownie optics at f32. My lens is 2mm bigger diameter than the Brownie. You can see the vignetting caused by the stop being too far away from the lens in the corners. However, the original frame size would have only been a 2 1/4 inch square so you wouldn't have seen that.Attachment 207606
