Zero Image 4x5 pinhole camera - Fomapan 100 and 30mph winds

Saturday morning 23-02-2020 I left my Mamiya RB67 at home and headed out with my Zero Image 4x5 pinhole camera, 3 film holders loaded with 6 sheets of Fomapan 100 4x5.

The weather was Overcast, 30 mph winds and Intermittent rain.

My Zero Image pinhole camera has 3 focal lengths, by adding an extra extension frame you can adjust the focal length. 25mm, 50mm and 75mm.

First location was on the sovereign end of Eastbourne seafront

I think this may work better in "portrait", may capture the whole church tower.

After being soaked by the waves and then the rain came in, I headed home.
