- Bukowsky, on 11/06/2008, -1/+12I made a few pinhole cameras in college when I doing alot of darkroom work. It's a pretty cool form of photography that everybody should try once.
- mclewell, on 11/06/2008, -2/+13I was I was half as creative as these artists...
- Kappa, on 11/07/2008, -3/+13How are photographs from a pinhole camera camera-free?
- sternomastoid, on 11/06/2008, -0/+9Wonder why Justin Quinnell wasn't mentioned? He has great pinhole pics.

- Spoonicus, on 11/07/2008, -1/+7A pinhole camera.. is a camera.
- fishbeef33, on 11/07/2008, -0/+4Just for fun, I highly recommend turing a room in your house into a camera obscura. Just find a room with a window that has a nice view, cover up all the windows in that room with a dark material like sheets of foamboard or an old thick blanket, and then poke a small hole in that material where the window is, about half an inch in diameter. Let your eyes adjust to the darkness, and look on the opposite wall. You'll see the view of the outside, projected upside down and left-right reversed on your wall. I do this activity with kids all the time when I teach photography, they love it (no Pedobears, please).

- pixelguru, on 11/07/2008, -0/+3If you have a SLR, you can make a pinhole camera out of it by cannibalizing one of the lens protectors, or a "pinhole telephoto" by adding a cardboard tube. http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/article_pages/C ...
For those working with film, I've seen an effective pinhole camera made out of soda cans. In a darkroom, you load them up with film, then seal them up and cover the pinhole with a piece of tape and carry them to the site in a 6-pack holder!
And yes, a pinhole camera is still a camera - it just lacks a lens. - zinziii, on 11/07/2008, -1/+3These are awesome. Makes me wish I had more time to be experimental in the darkroom at the moment.
- geemee, on 11/07/2008, -0/+2You can make a cardboard pinhole camera by printing out the templates availible here.

- inactive, on 11/07/2008, -1/+2Lol@the first. It gives you the idea that his mouth is always open (even though I know he just posed for the pictures if he didn't just fake some of them)
- piwy, on 11/07/2008, -1/+2A pinhole cam is a camera. The fact that it most of the time doesn't look like one is neither here nor there.
- EserVerx, on 11/07/2008, -2/+3The photogram is a dieing art form. Very sad, but true.
Beautiful work, absolutely stunning. - Riatsala, on 11/07/2008, -1/+2Note to self: make some photograms. They are cool!
- nancyhigh, on 11/07/2008, -1/+2Strange, shadowy pictures. Wonderful.
- ElectroStep, on 11/11/2008, -0/+1Pin-hole photograpghy is a nice easy way to look creative. Alot of the shots which work great in pin-hole are boring as hell in digital or using a real film camera.
The same way people are impressed easily with HDR shots.
They all look great and 'arty', but there's not much to them. - lilo5, on 11/08/2008, -0/+1MazdaEric :)

They were stolen from Marclay's short film Telephone.

Apple seems to steal alot of it's so called original art work. - fishbeef33, on 11/07/2008, -0/+1Altoid tins make great pinhole cameras too. You can glue a nut to it so you can attach it to a tripod!
- dwhitbeck, on 11/07/2008, -0/+0A couple of friends and I were trying to take photos of interference rings in college and then enlarging them. They were grainy and blurry. Then we realized all we had to do is directly expose an 8 x 10 piece of film. They came out great.
- warpbackspin, on 11/07/2008, -1/+1Or you can make a pinhole "lens" for a normal camera. I've used my Nikon D70 as a pinhole camera.
- zinziii, on 11/07/2008, -1/+1Good point. Though whilst a pinhole camera is still a camera it can range from the most basic setup using a biscuit tin, for example, to something much more complex that you've spent hours making.
- Rima99, on 11/07/2008, -2/+0wow nice picture i luv it!!
