Pinhole Attempt #2

A couple days ago I uploaded my first developed 4x5 pinhole negative. I thought the film was baked, or fogged. Some comments were made that suggested the film was okay but it was underexposed (due to reciprocity). This shot however was exposed in sunset with sun behind. It required a mere 1.5 seconds exposure in comparison to the other. But same effect here. In fact it looks fogged. Fogging could be due to bad film that got baked by being stored in a hot garage for at least one summer, could it not? I welcome any and all comments and critiques.

What am I metering? Ambient light from the angle I'm shooting from. There are trees in the sun, shade under the cover of the leaves, grass, sky and a foreground runt tree growing sideways which I thought would be interesting to include. I'm not spot metering just the trees.

spot meter the trees. the rest will fall into place.
