Happy accidents.
About six and a half years ago, the Funnel Tunnel was built by Patrick Renner and a host of volunteers on the esplanade on Montrose, right next to Art League Houston. I must have loaded this roll in who knows what camera and shot a few frames before unloading it for whatever reason. And then forgot that I had exposed the first few frames before setting the canister aside.

I used this roll recently on an Olympus XA to see if I could get accurate metering out of it using a hearing aid battery, instead of a Wein cell, since they're much cheaper and still close to the original voltage of the now unavailable mercury batteries meant to be used in this camera.

When I got the roll back, I saw these frames of the Funnel Tunnel at the start of the roll, blended in with what I was shooting this second time. It was a nice reminder of the effort that went into this installation, and how it anchored that space while it was there.
