Same view, but at night. I think I like this version even better. It almost feels like a shame to cover those frames up with the hull planking!

Not the first film 🎞️ photo of the boat under construction - but definitely the first of the aft section!
Those work lights are being used to take the cup out of a plywood pattern that got wet from all the snow.

I like that these old film cameras naturally take pictures that I’d have to explicitly tell a modern device to make.
Without having the vision for such a shot ahead of time, and overriding their defaults, they would never allow such an image.
