North Carolina Outer Banks: First Vacation Roll from the terraPIN ACME Pinhole Camera
terraPIN ACMEterraPIN ACME, Kodak T-Max 100
For the recent roadtrip I packed cameras in a similar way as for most vacations. For years, I have been going fairly lightweight and I find that simple and freeing and see no reason not to stick with it. I take one 35mm camera for color film, and one for black and white film. The cameras vary trip to trip to make sure they all get used. For this trip, my Minolta Maxxum 5 was designated for the color film. I like the color to be auto focus to make it quicker and more accurate for family member photos. For black and white, I packed the Nikon FE2, which has seen a lot of attention this year. I'll need to go back to my original and trusty FE soon.
However, since this was a road trip and no flying was involved, I had the option to throw in something different for a change of pace and I did. My 3d-printed terraPIN ACME is very light, takes up no space, and is a wonderful addition for travels. It provides a nice addition to the mix of photographs from my main film cameras and the cell phone snaps.

Not only did I pack it but I also used it, even if just with a single roll of black and white film. I split the roll about half and half between the beach and a pier and the wonderful town boardwalk at Duck, North Carolina. And it turned out that it was also the roll I was the most curious about once back at home as I developed and scanned those 12 squares first. I am glad I've been back to doing more pinhole photography in 2025 and hope that trend will continue. It's simple, it's freeing, and when I get philosophical I like to say it is quite similar to the world I see when I take my glasses off. In fact, the pinhole camera photos from the terraPIN ACME are sharper than my blurry world seen without glasses.

The beach where we stayed featured an ugly pier on giant metal posts. Not a beauty as some of the Outer Banks piers on zigzag wooden legs placed seemingly in a completely random fashion. However, its ugliness and a different look from the better looking and known ones was also a special draw. I did not want to start my pinhole roll there as I suspected I might use up the hole roll there.

Instead, I took the terraPIN ACME on a walk to Duck where I knew the boardwalk and its surroundings would provide very nice urban and natural treasures. In fact, there were so many photographic opportunities I had to watch out for having some room left for the ugly duckling.

This tree, and a few other picturesque ones along the boardwalk, continue standing in what I'd think are terrible conditions. It often amazes me what Mother Nature can create and sustain. Now that I am typing this another example comes to mind; the trees at the edge of the Horseshoe Falls, especially in winter covered with ice. How's something like that even possible?

These fishing rods in front of a fishing store were a completely unplanned subject that was simply too good to pass on with the repetition and convenient ground level outside placement. Just had to watch out for people going in and coming out of the store, we would not want anyone spooked by the little black box, would we?

Alright, piers and docks may be cliches but who cares? And this one with its double T, kind of like the top of. utility pole, offered a nice unique symmetry. That also worked really well with the wide focal length of this camera, which cause a significant exposure difference between the center of the photograph and its edges. It seems this photo just would not be what it is without the pronounced vignetting.

Alright, to close today's pinhole photography post we are on the beach by the ugly pier. It's a scientific pier of the US Army Corps of Engineers, a Field Research Facility. This the function over form. But as I said, that also gave it its own appeal and uniqueness. Photo number 1, a traditional centered symmetry of the pier. Well, almost. I had to raise the camera up for some distortion to give the photo a different take. And since the perspective is a guessing game with no viewfinder or back LCD, the photo moved a bit off center too.
And then I decided to go for something a bit more different and allowed the pier to move off to the side. That might even be quite natural with a rectangular format where the rule of thirds is often successfully used but with square, I hesitated. And then I went for it anyway.

And I must admit I like the result. It's curiously uncomfortable and it's growing on me compared to the more traditional take above. It may even find its way to my darkroom for an uncomfortable print.
Thanks for stopping by!

Spotmatic Stroll through Orchard Park, NY
Pentax Spotmatic & 105mm f/2.8 lensFilm Photography
A bit of a catch-up after a blogging break with another Orchard Park photo walk post, this time with a 35mm Pentax Spotmatic film camera loaded with Kodak T-Max 100 black and white negative film in hand. I usually have a wide angle lens mounted as that angle of view allows me to work the foreground vs background perspective and I like getting close to my foregrounds. On this walk, I changed the pace a bit and went with a 105mm f.2.8 telephoto lens. And despite having loaded the relatively slow ISO 100 film, I banked on the sunny day and added a red filter, which effectively knocked the film speed two stops down to 25. Time to see things differently and capture different perspectives.
This walk started in the woods across the street and took me all the way to the village and back home. I always enjoy those long walks that can be 8 - 9 miles long based on some route variations, or even as crazy as 12 miles when a substantial Birdsong Park offshoot is added. Those can even hurt. But the base walk is just right, enjoyable, with no real side effects to speak of. Yes, they are demanding on time even with no photography but when photography is in the plan, the commitment can be quite substantial.
The neighborhood woods always have something to offer too, whether to runners, walkers, or photographers. I like to practice my eye there. Despite walking the trails there at least weekly, there's always something new, something different, or something I have not noticed before.
Who would not like Mother Nature arranging a log over a creek?

Just a few steps further down the trail waited another log. This one was more surprising as it formed an obstacle to overcome. But before stepping over, of course, a photograph had to be captured. especially since I knew this would not last long and would be cleared away soon. I was also glad this was the day I had the telephoto lens mounted as it allowed for a shallower depth of field placing focus on the trunk. Ok, now we can step over and continue the walk.

Even though I captured this sign several times I wanted to do it again as its future life is quite uncertain, probably just a matter of time before it's gone. While this telephoto perspective allowed me to juxtapose it against the houses behind it, it belonged to a house to the left of the frame, which is no more. Only an empty lot remains after a storm damaged the warehouse, which was cleared out, and the house shortly after.

I always feel uneasy about taking pictures of residential houses, even if from the street and always avoiding any people. Once in a while a house catches my eye enough though to click the shutter, as in the photo below with the hose being beautiful lit from the east by the rising sun.

In the past, I had photographed the Deuel Cemetery entrance path with a wide angle lens, and this was an opportunity for a different perspective. Again, the illumination by the rising sun was irresistible.

Here we come to a 2-mile mark on the walk as we arrive at Green Lake in Yates Park. Circling the lake and returning at this point would cut the walk to 4.5 miles, which often comes handy when time is limited, but that was not needed on this day. The long lens helped me find a perspective I had not capture here before.

I often come upon this sign when it is in the shade but this morning it was lit up wonderfully allowing be to capture the cover page for a potential future zine. No, I have no active plans for a Green Lake zine yet but why not? I certainly have an ugh material from there.

The Orchard Park Train Depo is a strong photo magnet for me all year long and any time of the day. On this blue sky morning, the front light was perfect knowing I had the red filter over the lens. And the newly repaired vintage signal looked spectacular!

Here we arrive at the midpoint of today's walk, Gingersnap Patisserie, a wonderful local cafe and bakery that is rather dangerous to the active walker as one can easily let too many calories sneak in and negate the benefits of the long walk. Still, I'd say I wall for it at least 50% of the time. If you think you're safe because you're gluten free, you are mistaken. This cafe has a wonderful selection of goodies even for you! Still not sold? Well, don't take my word for it and go check it out yourself.

Back to the Fairytale Forest
Previously from the magical forest: Visiting a Fairy Tale
The forest across the street from us turns into a land of magic in late June and early July. Sometimes, we miss out on this magic if a vacation has us away. But some years we are here to witness it. And this year the show is absolutely spectacular, even if my photo I am sharing below does not do it justice. And I must admit, I feel like I did better five years ago and feel motivated to give it another try. I'll just have to go soon before their numbers start dwindling.
Yes, I am talking about fireflies. But not just one or two but enough to light up the whole forest.
I usually share photos captured on film but will admit I have not tried this task on film yet and it might be rather challenging to pull off. Couple more practices with the digital camera and I may give it a go. But as I have already said, I forgot some of my lessons learned from four years ago and needed to relearn on the spot, and even after the fact when reviewing my results on the computer. I love going full analog from capture to printing but must say for this more or less impromptu outing both the digital camera as well as the computer came rather handy as learning devices with the quick feedback they provide. And while my Nikon D610 is rather old given the digital standards (just looked it up, it's 12 years old!) it can still pull of ISO 6400 with usable results. With film, I am not sure whether the fireflies would still be visible or disappear in the grain. And the grain might be rather chunky. If I go with Portra 800 getting to EI 6400 would require a 3-stop push and that could be rather interesting. Of course, now that I mentioned it it will have to be done.
Back to Magical Forest FirefliesNight Photography, Orchard Park, NY
Back to Magical Forest Fireflies, Night Photography, Orchard Park, NY
Before I forget, let's see what I had to relearn, or "How to Photograph Fireflies":
- 20mm is too wide and leaves too much foreground dark. Looking at the above photo, a 50mm might actually be a good choice (is that what I used in 2020?).
- Get the fastest lens you have. The 20mm I used this time was an f/2.8. I have a f/1.8 50mm, which would provide an edge.
- With the 20mm I used infinity focus at f/2.8 and did not worry about it. For the 50mm f/1.8 and it's significantly smaller depth of field I'd use a flashlight and focus into the middle ground where most of the action would be.
- Provide some sense of the place, like a brighter background at the edge of the forest (aiming out of the forest insert of in) or a creek or a path if the trees open up around it and let in more light.
- f/2.8 and ISO 6400 provided the best results at this particular location. My exposure times were 30 seconds, the longest time the D610 supports before going into the bulb mode.
- I turned on the long exposure noise reduction but that also doubles up the time for each exposure to 1 minute. With newer cameras, this may not be needed as 6400 might be far from their max.
- Tripod is a must
As far as post processing goes, this is not a single image. It's a blend of several images to get in more firefly activity. While that may seem like massive cheating, I don't feel that way. It gets to feeling of the photo closer to what one experiences on location and it still is not a match.

Cyanotypes XX: Wet Cyanotype Photograms
This cyanotype session was a departure from my photographic cyanotypes where I expose a negative of a photograph onto a watercolor paper coated with cyanotype chemicals. Here, I had no photograph and no negative. Instead, I placed various leaves I found in the back yard onto the coated paper, selectively added pepper and green tea from a tea bag into some areas, sprayed the whole thing with a diluted vinegar, covered with a foil, squeezed behind glass, and exposed as I would a normal cyanotype photograph under my UV lamp for about 8 minutes.

I wish I could share more details but this was a spontaneous activity and I did not take any notes. I just wanted to see if I could make it work. I came across wet cyanotype work on some Facebook groups dedicated to alternative photography and wanted to give it a shot myself. Even there, I was sloppy keeping notes for my inspiration. Thinking about it now, I traced back at least two articles off Facebook that served as some of the inspiration:
- Wet Cyanotype by Galina Manikova published on Alternative Photography
- Wet Cyanotype – injecting colours and double exposing by Tena Smith published on Alternative Photography
Leaves 2, Wet Cyanotype Photogram, Batch 26From the Garden

As you can see, I have ways to go and a lot to experiment with and learn. But it worked and it was a lot of fun! I have not even dipped into the whole double exposure possibility where one can creatively hide things from the previous exposures.

Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day (WPPD) 2025
terraPIN ACME3d-printed pinhole camera
I had not done any pinhole photography since the Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day 2024 (WPPD 2024) and embraced the 2025 edition hoping it would get me restarted. As a tradition now, I picked my 3d-printed terraPIN ACME medium format camera as the companion for the day.
terraPIN ACME in ActionBehind the scenes with a pinhole camera
It features a handmade pinhole I made by pushing the tip of a tiny needle into a sheet of aluminum harvested from a can of soda (pop for Buffalonians). I did not push it through, just pushed it in enough to create a bump on the other side. Then I sanded that bump off until a tiny hole showed up against the window. If you're interested in the whole background story, feel free to head back to my Custom Made Pinhole for a 3d Printed Pinhole Camera post from 2021.
The simple design of cameras like this one always makes me wonder why traditional film cameras relied so heavily on felt and other materials to keep the light out from the inside. There is nothing like that in here, just simple principles of the physics of light taking advantage of lights reluctance to make turns. Had all cameras been designed around this their aging would be more graceful and less maintenance would be needed.

I initially measured and calculated the pinhole at about f/208 but by practical tests determined the hole is even smaller. For WPPD 2025 I decided to go with f/256. By now I know that that even more exposure is needed and will rate it 1 or 2 stops smaller for the next outing.

I really did not want to start with the photo you see first in this post as it seemed like a too much of a cliche. In the end, this was my frame #1 as I needed to start somewhere. The whole roll was a challenge and I only managed that one roll. I am happy The Day provided the motivation to go pinholing again but I want to make sure I don't wait another year. It's such a unique photographic flow.

Since I am posting this with a delay I can share that the inspiration has already struck and I have another roll ready to share with you, and I was both excited to go out and did not have to force things along the way. Hopefully my muscle memory is returning and 2025 will be a good year for pinhole photography for me.

What is so different about it? It can be very simple. The camera itself is just a black box with a tiny hole in the front in place of a lens. It's amazing how such a simple contraption can do so much. Some people build them from cardboard, others reuse boxes from household items, some buy ready-made ones to enjoy the photographic aspect. And in the last decade a new option emerged to 3d print them, either to one's own design or from the designs created and shared by other enthusiasts.

Using a pinhole camera can also be very simple. Instead of a large sturdy tripod I used a small pocketable one for these images. A bean bag would have worked just as well if not better solely to be able to freely adjust the camera angle. With traditional photography, I enjoy keeping an undistorted perspective where vertical lines remain vertical, horizon is level, etc. With pinhole photography I actually enjoy breaking all of that and going against the grain with tilts up or down causing plentiful distortions.

Another nice benefit of WPPD 2025 was that I visited Buffalo's Outer Harbor after a rather long break. No, I do not want to look how long it has been. It's been a good reminder that I need to explore more and take advantage of the beautiful waterfront the area offers, whether it be around Lake Erie, Niagara River, or other rivers and creeks. Yes, my next expedition should be focused specifically on water.

I hope you've enjoyed this glance into the world of pinhole photography and who knows, maybe you'll try your hand in it too? It's really rewarding bringing back photographs using such an incredibly simple tool, especially in the world full of high-end electronics, do-it-all software, and fake-it-all AI.
