Pinhole Photographs April 24th 2005 PBC

Pinhole Camera 'self portrait' For World Pinhole Day on 24th April 2005 I made a number of pinhole photographs outside in the garden.
Most of these I fouled up completely due to a  lack of practice and I badly over exposed most of them. I decided to
try an indoor one and made this one overnight in the studio with a piece of mirror propped against the easel. I set the
camera up in front of the mirror at teatime and left it overnight. It got the evening light, the street light and the
dawn light before I picked it up at breakfast time the next day.

This is the current wooden camera which I still take out occasionally. Ultra wide angle, based on the cardboard prototype.

This image can also be seen on the World Pinhole Day website which is also a good resource for stuff about
pinhole cameras and how to make them.
