1960
November - India. Aundh,
Maharashtra state. A stall in the village street with hand-beaten brassware. The
detail of the handwork shows in the surface but the trade was dying. By 2000 when
I last searched for this type of pot I was told it was rare and had been replaced
by machine made look-a-likes.
Camera MPP Microflex Twin Lens Reflex with F3.5 77.5mm Taylor Taylor Hobson lens
- yellow filter 1x. Film Kodak Verichrome Pan at F8 - 1/300 second. Developed
by hand in Aundh using May and Baker Promicrol at normal dilution with water from
the village well.
