Still Pinhole, You are Still Awesome!

A few months back I did a post on pinhole cameras... Paul and I love them because they break photography down to it's most basic form. A single "darkened chamber" that captures light, or in latin a "camera obscura." One of the interesting things about pinhole cameras is that there is no shutter, therefore you can expose your film/paper for as long as you want. ... However this is not always easy. Since it's not digital you never really know what you are going to get so you must use the method of trial and error. There is a chance that you can over or under expose your image.

Here are some amazing examples of pinhole long exposures that have really inspired us to break out the old toy and put it to work! ~Leanne
