Pinhole Camera Project

Project Brief:
To create a pinhole camera out of any object of our choosing and to experiment with the production of photos with our camera.

Outcome:

I chose to create my pinhole camera out of a hollowed out book. creating a lens from a piece of metal with a very small hole in it. Taking photos around the campus and experimenting with different exposure times allowed me to produce many different photos to a quick 15 minutes per photo total photo and developing time (apart from the 2 hour night time exposure).
