that he and Ekblaw entered the open
arch or grotto thus formed in 1915. They
could stand upright in it. Four could
easily have stood there then. He took photos.
Note on Perret camera - Speed 6
seems to be about the same as
speed 4 of Graflex ... aperture 4 cm
speed 6 of Perret gives ca 1/25 sec. exposure
7 1/2 = ca u.s. 10 ; (7 1/6 = 16) ; 18 = 20 ; (20 = 24) ;
7 2/5 = ca u.s. 39 ; (32 = 64) ; 36 = 84 ; (128 = 45)
7 5/0 = " " 160
The latest exposures of 12 1/2 / 4/16 (= 10/25") on
Penker Snow Point and of 18/4/16 (= 20/25") on
Ekblaw glacier nearer on 11. VIII. 1915 gave
very good results. We were only three or four
miles distant (perhaps less) when these views
were taken. Film exposures of same
diaphragms and times on more distant
mountains and ice masses a month
previously were too great.
