While I was at the nursing home I asked a few of the residents at lunch if I could take their picture. I was originally thinking individual portraits, but I was asked by several of the ladies to take groups shots instead with their best friends. I grabbed this shot of two of the gals in front of a window. I knew the window back light was going to be a problem and I didn’t think my depth of field was going to cover these gals, but took the picture anyway. I was correct. I then took picture of these gals but I inadvertently double exposed it with a third shot – I forgot to reverse the dark slide in the film holder. As I said, there are a LOT of ways to screw up a 4×5 picture.
So this is the only shot I have so far of these gals. I plan to shoot at the nursing home again but until then, this is my photo of best friends.
