Pinhole Camera's - 19/09/17
To add to my previous blog on health & safety in the dark room, also in Tuesday's lesson, we also learned on techniques & how to do pinhole photography, & of course how to use pinhole cameras.
when doing this , i learned quite a few technical skills, but i will admit i still need to improve in doing this as i was unable to get many good photos as i struggled with the different lengths of time of exposure.
For those who do not know, a pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens but has a tiny aperture. The pinhole aspect, effectively is a light-proof box (preferably a shoe box) with a small hole in one side with a little cover of tape, covering the pinhole. When you are wanting to capture the subject you want to capture, when you lift up the little cover, light from the area, passes through the aperture and projects an inverted image on the opposite side of the box, which can be known as the camera obscura effect.
depending on how much light, preferably as you can only really do pinhole photography outside, as because of the photographic paper inside the box, if you expose it inside then, you've ruined the photographic paper & having to restart, there is in the area of where you are gonna capture, you will have to do different lengths of expose. dark areas preferably being longer exposure & areas with more light less exposure.
