What is Pinhole Photography?
The Pinhole Camera is a simple camera without a lens and with a single small aperture, a pinhole – (a pin sized hole in the side of the camera) a light-proof box and a shutter door that is used manually. The students can make them out of just about anything, but we generally use the large oatmeal containers to make our own pinhole cameras. (the oats make pretty good cookies!) The one below was built by Henry Chandler in the spring of 2013.
.The objective of this project is to learn the photography process using a pinhole camera. To be responsible with the darkroom privileges, and helpful with taking care of equipment and chemicals. To take at least 6 excellent A range photos, or 3 excellent photos at home or 1 excellent photo on World wide pinhole day.
