Sep 30: Man reading a newspaper

A big thank you to Lara for sending me this copy of the New York Times. Why? I'm on the cover of the Home & Garden section that's why! Famous for making pinhole cameras from wooden Ikea boxes. Old news now, I guess, and I would have done this shot a week ago when the newspaper arrived, but I wanted to do it properly with a daft old film camera, and that needed a clear weekend for the developing and scanning. Thanks again Lara!!

Rolleicord Vb ,Fujifilm Neopan 400
1/30 sec f8 ISO 1600 deved in Rodinal 1+100 for 2 hours full exif

A very understated title for such a good picture.
