I glue on a filter holder with the glass broken out over the pinhole, then just
use a lens cap for a shutter. I eyeball the position of the camera, sometimes
use a laser pointer for fine tuning. The situation was 'as is'. i'd been
thinking about this image for several years. It's now the museum of the current
hospital on the same grounds.

This is the result of a twelve day exposure of a bathroom in a nineteenth
century state psychiatric hospital building. Newly admitted patients were
stripped and scrubbed here before they were allowed onto the ward. I like to
think that the glow of light over the tub represents the ghosts of all those
unhappy people.
