Here are three of the dozen or so pinhole camera images I have taken to date. There is something very appealing about using a process that has been around since the early 1800's and that is so totally non-technical!
The first shot is a double exposure of a large clock and the Clark's Fork River. The only tricky part was figuring out the exposure times. Because the clock was in the shade I used an exposure of two minutes. The river, in the sunlight, was exposed for 4 seconds. Still, the river is the dominant image of the two.
The second shot is my favorite so far. I put the camera in the second story window and shot a 16 second exposure toward Heart Mountain. Amazingly, the llamas stayed pretty still during that time so they are relatively sharp in the image.
The third shot was taken directly into the sun from the garden in our back yard.
The last two shots showcase one of the best features of a pinhole - the amazing depth of field that can be achieved with an aperature of f/512.
