Pinhole Camera

As well as working on my project I've been doing some workshops.

This one was pinhole photography.

I like photography at Solent. We get to use all the old fashioned techniques rather than depend on digital.

This technique involves an empty beer can (or something of this size).

You simply make a lid for the can out of card and tape and make a pinhole in the middle of the can with a tape "shutter". Then you put a piece of special paper inside set your camera somewhere and uncover the hole for about 1min-15min depending on weather conditions and light ect...

Our first attempt was a fail, we exposed it outside for 5 minutes when it really only needed 15 seconds..

So we went to halls grabbed some props and hats and took some inside which were much more successful. Heres the ones that actually worked:
