[pinhole-discussion] Xerox photo transfers
Guillermo, Check out Theresa Airey's book "Creative Photo Printmaking." She has a chapter on using Xerox machines for doing transfers: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0817437258/qid=998017559/sr=1-1/ref=s c_b_1/002-3872627-9328828 Hope that helps, Jon > >> Or how about taking it further still.

[pinhole-discussion] Re: IR pinhole problems
Hi Jeff, I'm the editor for the IR section at the Open Directory Project. There is 18 links for technique and 22 of IR photographers: http://dmoz.org/Arts/Photography/Alternative/Infrared/ Here is the IR forum: http://www.biphoto.com/ir/wwwboard.html As Guy mentioned, WJ's is a good place to start: http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/mainpage.htm There you can find info on the IR mailing list if you wish. He is a good source for polyester Wratten 87c filter material (and others) for putting the filter between the frame rails of a 35mm camera or in a pinhole.
