color pinhole shots

Got some pinhole images back today. Ballard Camera does E6 processing and scanning, making it a one-stop deal.

The pictures are here in all their light-leaking glory. The fact that it’s a red leak makes me think it’s something to do with the counter window (which is red). It’s on the other side of the frame, though. The leak fogs the film in the lower left corner, upper right on the image. Bah, so much for my spatial reasoning. It’s right under the counter window. It seems like a simple fix: if I can get some felt to encircle the window to ensure no light leaves that circle, I should be OK.

Interestingly, the red blotches are not always visible on these thumbnails.

I also can’t work out the vignetting on the opposite side, what blocks that corner.
On the plus side, the daylight exposures look good. Some of the shady ones are too dark. More light/longer exposure times. Some kind of tripod rig is going to have to happen, as well.
