Here is a site to check out:



The Pin Hole Camera Assignment:
You are to use a basic box that is completely light tight as a camera.

Try to take photos with your box by loading the photo paper in the darkroom and going outside to take your photos. Make sure you keep track of the time and hold steady with each exposure (a tripod can be handy).
You are to try the following exposures:
  1. Clear Subject- image is in focus, good exposure, subject is easy to identify.
  2. Double Exposure- Expose your photo paper 2 times. You image should still be clear and easy to see.
  3. Movement- Make sure you can identify your image. The movement should be very slow.
  4. Positive of one of the above. Use the enlarger to invert the darks to light and visa versa.
  5. Label all of your experiments and hand in.
