Pedro and Enid
Another shot on #ilforddirectpositivepaper with the 1902 Century No. 5 #5x7camera and the #foldio. I wanted to see how narrow the depth of field was on the no-name brass lens that came with the camera, so I placed Enid slightly behind Pedro (the mascot of everyone’s favorite racist tourist trap, South of the Border). I probably should have placed her closer to Pedro so you could see that; this looks like they’re in the same plane, like this is a mistake. Also, it’s not framed great, as you can see the edge of the Foldio on the right. Notes for the next try.
I got a dry plate holder for the camera and some J. Lane dry plates, so I hope to give that a try sometime this week.
