Time for a #filmphotography post that resonates with my current #telephony geekitude...
This is a Western Electric (Bell System) Princess phone that sits in my home office. As was standard with them, it has an incandescent dial light, powered by an original WE transformer and isolating modular Y-adapter. It's now connected to an ATA instead of a landline, but it's still doing its thing, all these decades later.
Shot w/ Linhof Master Technika on Ilford FP4+ 4x5 sheet film, 7 minute exposure.
