Breakfast on the Orient Express (2)

This image was taken with a 35mm Pentax film camera using Ilford HP5 black and white film. The negatives were scanned using a HP film scanner.

The body of the Asahi Pentax K1000 was finished in black leather with chrome trim only, although early production Pentax K1000 SE bodies had brown leather with chrome trim.

The Pentax K1000 uses a horizontal travel, rubberized silk cloth focal plane shutter with a speed range of 1/1000 second to 1 second, along with Bulb and a flash X-sync of 1/60 second. It is 91.4 millimetres tall, 143 mm wide, and 48 mm deep, and weighs 620 grams.

Half way through processing the film I noticed a chink of light coming in from below the door – the film was ruined but the results were interesting – maybe?
