Hi, I guess I might as well get into the act. I am not new to this list, having been a member since November 18th, 1999 but this is the first time you are hearing from me. In the meantime, I have accumulated quite an archive of useful material from this group and quite the collection of pinhole photos that have been posted here over the years.
I am 53 years old, live in Montréal, Québec, Canada, teach philosophy and have been back to photography, darkroom and all, for the past five years. I work with lenses in 35, 4.5x6, 6x6, 6x9, 4x5 and 8x10. I also collect vintage cameras and lenses from the 1930's to 1960's. I made my first pinhole over forty years ago for a science project in high school; the following year, we built an x-ray tube and since I was also the school photographer, I got to develop the 4x5 x-ray of my hand. I still have it, my hand that is. I just recently decided to get back to pinhole photography as a complement to a photo project I am working on. As a result, I just recently acquired some pinholes from a fellow member of this group. I am following with much interest the discussion on 4x5 pinholing since I want to use the pinholes on my 4x5 Crown Graphic and Kodak Empire 8x10. May the light be with you.
