I like pushing or pulling photographic equipment. Flooding the camera with light, or leaving the shutter open too long, or juddering, or when the lights don’t sync properly.
I like revealing the tricks of photography. Showing the conditions under which the image was made.
In the case of the Error-Urchin I am embarrassed to say I cannot recall how the error came about (as is often the case). It was taken on 120 film with a Mamiya camera, but I have no further information about the anomaly.
