This is the camera my dad would use to create his double, triple, or quadruple exposures. Here's a picture of him posing with his friends, (on the right) when he was a young man. He probably set this up and took the picture with whatever camera he owned at that time. The following pictures are a series of his multiple exposures. Yes, he was a little nutty. I don't have a scanner, so took a picture of these, but they really are much clearer than this.Watercolor, 7"x 7"

Dad would have gone CRAZY with photoshop! He died before his time.
ReplyDeletethat bottom pic...can't you just hear him singing, "good little, bad little, Y - O - U!"
ReplyDeleteSusan, I love this camera series! I had a darkroom from the time I was 13 until just recently. It broke my heart to put my enlarger on eBay. The lovely batik quality of your watercolors brings a fresh vision to these old workhorses. I have new respect for my Yashica-D and Canon FTB as possible fodder for the daily paintings.
