Fireplace clock....
They say the best camera is the one you have at hand. Well, when I woke up this morning this was my view, but all I had to capture it was a five year old iPhone 3. Better then nothing, though.

This goes with the 617 images I just posted on the 617 image sharing thread:
"Pelican Man"
I was photographing with my 617 film camera with my Leica M9 as light meter and met this guy. He and his buddy claim that the pelican is his pet.
A friend found this,
International Bird Rescue – Every Bird Matters » Blue-Banded Pelicans
looks like K15 has quite a history. I contacted the Wild bird rescue and sent them the photo. Lets see how it turns out...
Sinar 4x5, Modified Cambo back.
Exposure trough tiny slit with film advance.
Cambo 6x7 back, instead of 6x7 opening, did small vertical slit (approx 0,3mm) close to the film plane. Electric motor attached to advance the film during exposure.
As a result moving object is exposed "sharp" on the film, but steady background becomes lines.
May be it will be easier to understand this way: when you look on the ground glass, projection of moving car is moving across the ground glass. Then think of moving the film together with projection of the car. Car will be sharp on the picture, but background "motion blurred". Slit is needed to make exposure only at certain point, not during the whole frame of the back.
Okay, thanks for that explanation.
