Here’s a picture of my very own home made pin hole camera
just minutes after I completed it.
My adventure into the world of pinhole photography began
last year when my son gave me a pinhole camera kit for my birthday. I had been working on it here and there
whenever I had a little time to spare but once I found out about Worldwide
Pinhole Photography Day (WWPD) being held this year on April 29th, I
decided to finally finish it so I could participate.
This event was organized for the first time back in 2001 and
has become an annual world-wide celebration of pinhole photography. All over
the world workshops and gatherings are organized to help people build and
experiment with pinhole cameras. Pictures taken on the last Sunday in April are
submitted to WPPD following the directions on the web site.
This is not a contest. Every picture is a winner and shows a
unique composition the photographer thought was special enough to share it with
the world.
By using the link below and visiting the web site you can
find out more about WWPD and the world of pinhole photography. There are also
eleven years (soon to be twelve) of pictures for you to enjoy in the web site
galleries.
Soon I hope to have my own pinhole photographs to share with
you here and with the world on the WWPD web site.
