Re: [pinhole-discussion] Pinhole Day
Everyone seem to have persons to honor in selecting the Day of the Pinhole. Some time in mid spring or mid autumn would be most fair to all locations on the planet. Since we have a great deal of energy gemerating at this time, lets chose a date not more than two months away and not favor any particular nationalty or culture. Jerry E I nominate Lord Rayleigh's birthday, November 12, 1842.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Pinholes in my pinholes
Larry...it is my guess that the inside of your pinhole camera is dusty. At least in my large format photography, pinholes in the negatives come from dust settling on the film. Jerry Ellison Folks, I have been getting these tiny little pinholes in my negatives every once in a while and can't figure where they come from. The negatives can be color or bw and some I process, some I send out to various labs. So I have two questions. First, does anyone have an idea of how this happens? Second, Is there a way to plug the hole so I can print them and then color in the spot on the print?

[pinhole-discussion] RE: stripped negative
I used the method as Leezy described. For you experimenters, I did find a certain chemical solution that made peeling the emulsion from the paper backing much easier, but I've forgotten which chemical. A hundred years ago photographers who used glass plates stripped the emulsion off all unuseable negatives so the glass plate could be recoated and used again. Then in the 1940s, pictorial photographers who made paper negatives discovered the process all over again. And in the 1970s, as far as I know, the procedure was used mostly by people making scenic lamp shades from RC prints. Jerry E
[pinhole-discussion] stripped negatives
I am new to this website so I do not know if this topic has been explored yet. In the mid-1970s I built pinhole cameras and used RC enlarging paper in the cameras. After exposure and development, I stripped the RC emulsion from its paper backing. This made a very useful negative. I had earlier used this procedure in making scenic lamp shades from RC prints.
