I just do the usual calulations and apply the usual reciprocity corrections. I once spent more than a year composing an entire 40 print show of multiple exposures (lens, not pinhole.) mostly color negative film. In that context I just multiplied the film speed by the number of exposures per frame. Got good exposure density results. Compositions depended on the relationship between light and shadow areas in each exposure. With pinhole I tend to just overexpose and correct in printing. ----- Original Message ----- From: ragowaring To: pinhole-discussion@p at ???????

I think this is one of the strong points about pinhole - multiple exposure. What time does the T Max 400 need for such exposures? I am thinking of using film in addition to the paper I use at the moment and am wondering what difference this will make in a practical sense. I have uploaded a photograph I took during a residency I was on recently and used one of the props the students were using during lunch time. The exposures were all calculated guesswork ranging from a third to half the total expsure. There were three exposures on the paper in all. As you can see, it is a self portrait.

I was shooting 8x10 Tmax 400 and mistakenly did a double exposure. I never ever discard apparent mistakes without loking at them carefully, or even printing them just to see what i really have. This is a gift of the gods. The other thing I learned from this trip was that I can shoot 8x10 and then just cut the good image out of the negative. I've been using this set of images from ireland to cut my teeth on platinum printing, with good enough results so far.
