I like the second snowdrop picture best. It looks really cinematic with such a low vantage point and the leaves in focus as well. I'm really beginning to think about pinhole photography as it has a such a dreamy look about it.
Agree! That second image has a kind of 3D pop to it. Will have to try it in more woodland in the future. This camera and the Zero Image have really good pinholes (for a price) but a cheap Holga will still give really nice dreamy results.
if you roll past the frame you were wanting (11) you can rewind it back. I recently got an RSS 6x12 and the first couple rolls did the same thing but just rewound it back one frame with no issue. Enjoy!
Funnily enough I did attempt this but the film just would not budge all the way back to 11 even when loosening the winder. I felt the film tension could snap so just left it as is. The film winders are quite stiff on my copy (probably form lack of use being new) . Hopefully it'll loosen up in time!
This looks like a very enjoyable and different way to enjoy photography. I'm sure the forced limitations of the long exposures can lead to some very exciting images. I loved the first two - especially the second. Was the 'structure' you referred to ancient standing stones or some kind of more recent impression of standing stones?
It's a modern wooden sculpture of fingers coming out of the ground. Been there a fair few years now and losing definition but nothing ancient. Thank you for watching and happy you liked the images!
I love my RSS 6x17. Try ektar when you're ready for color. Ektar really sings with pinhole.
Definately plan to when the weather gets better over here!

Hi Andy, great video and good to see a 6x17 in action, hoping to get my hands on one soon 🤞
Keep uo the good work, look forward to seeing more soon 👍
Thanks Will and will do! An honour to have the Pinhole legend himself watching my video! 😀
