It's hard to solve an equation if every term is an unknown.

Dirty windshields and rising suns do not make for good train photography, but they can't all be perfect!

Cool caboose I saw in Ardmore, OK awhile back. Canon AE-1, Kentmere 100. Developed in Caffenol, not sure what I did wrong with this roll, most likely undissolved NaCo3 and fingerprints on the emulsion. I had a hard time getting this roll of film on the reel.
