Pinhole Photography!

since I seem to be on a kick this week on "things I miss doing" (you can see yesterday and day before's post here) I figure why not keep it going!

I miss trying to come up with new ways to be creative.

Bubs got me a pinhole camera for xmas a while back

Basically its just a "shell" of cardboard with a teeeeeny tiiiiny pin size hole where you open it up to let light in and close it to stop the light.

It's basically how photos used to be taken back in the hay day where people would take creepy family photos super still and not smiling.


I'm pretty sure this family above is MEGA STOKED that they're daughter is getting hitched.

They just couldn't express it because they had to stay COMPLETELY STILL for a LONG time in order to get this gem of a photo.
Here are some of my photos experimenting with pinhole photography-they're kinda gnarly but hey this is an archaic form of photography, cut homegirl some slack.

((chicken coop))

((bench and garbage can))

not bad considering all I had to work with was a cardboard box, a pinhole and some light.

would you ever give pinhole photography a go?
