    We have an image !!!

    EDIT AFTER SCANNING ::

    This is it :

    My first pinhole negative

    focal length = 6"
    pinhole = 0.030" in a brass shim 0.002" thick
    paper negative = Ilford MGIVRC Perle
    no metering (sorry )
    exposure = 5 minutes in a scene which I would have guessed to be 1 second @ f/16 for FP4+

    This is waaayyy overexposed eh? I tried another at 2 minutes and it looks much better - it's drying now, but I'm guessing that 1 minute might have been sufficient.

    And ::

    This is the second one ::

    My second pinhole negative

    Better, but still not right, too bright, but while I did play with the brightness in the first one (not more than I would have in a contact print though), I didn't do anything but a minimal sharpening in the second one.
