I agree that time is one of the dimensions that I really enjoy when experiencing
the pinhole camera. I started taking night photography last year which
has 1-30 minute exposures and that experience taught me that capturing time
and motion over time was a very different experience.
thank you leezy, and thanks for my first pinhole camera!
Christine,
How nice to hear your voice.

Hi,
I'm a photography student beginning to use pinhole
cameras to make images because of the aesthetic...
I'm interested in the circular images fading away to
black and also the way that they have a soft diffused
feel to them.. and I don't want to depress anyone
here, but my work has a sense of

I remember when I switched my major in college from Engineering to
Photography and the head photo teacher said that was not at all strange.

I like that. Not that I do really long exposures, but it's true. Even 5
seconds is way more noticable than 1/125. With all of my camera's it takes
time to reload the film, I'm not just advancing film through a camera. So
there's more
TIME! It is all about the time of the thing...
I have shot pinhole images that take anywhere from 10 seconds to one week or
two. I can live life during those times. I can have memories of a life
lived and experiences had during the exposure of those images. I can
remember things that I did
I choose to work with pinhole because of the sheer simple ability to poke a
hole in foil, or a recycled pop can, put on a box or can put some paper or
film and capture an image. It is all about the magic that happens in the
process. I'm aware of the science involved and I have learned so much
I am so happy that we are talking about the WHY of pinhole. I have been
keeping an eye on this list for a while, and alot of the technical talk is
not for me (don't get me wrong, some of it is really helpful if it pertains
to what I am working on).
My major Why's fall in to the following 3

art science are inseparable these days, two sides of the same coin...
even if you're purely an artist you depend on science for the materials you
use

Wotcher all,
I haven't commented for a while but here's my contribution to the new
debate and thanks for precipitating it Alexis ;-)
I think that the reason a lot of the debate on this list concerns the how
and not the what is because of the glorious variety of ways in which a
lensless image can

Science or art? Science ensures that is titanium yellow is always titanium

Style or content? As has already been noted, they mate.
What is pinhole all about? About involving the operator more in the process,
about technical minimalism, about points of view
Hi:

I am struck by the way that the camera sees the world in a substantially
different manner than I do. The image is a real image,
