Shooting Kodak Brownie No. 3 Model B (1917 - 1920)

Taken at Tai Kok Tsui, Hong Kong

My first experiment shooting Kodak Brownie No. 3 - B with 4X5 film (cut in black bag) and tripod. Not happy with the blurry focus at first, but gradually found the dreamy /low-contrast rendering impressionistic. Could be a lens problem or film not set at the right focal distance, but this is what makes my camera unique. Until 2 weeks ago it was just sitting in a display cabinet ;-)

If you have any comments on how to improve my shooting method, please leave a comment!
