Another shot from my Quaker Oats box analog pinhole camera, my new favorite camera. Camera was shoved between two chain link fence posts for stabiliztion and exposed for about eighty seconds late on a variably cloudy afternoon.
Used Ilford MGIV Resin Coated paper (satin) and home developed in Ilford BW chemicals. Scanned on an Epson flatbed scanner and inverted in PSP X2. Adjusted contrast and sharpness ever so slightly and added sepia.
That thing is brilliant! I hope you will keep taking these and create a portfolio folder of them all. They should be enjoyed in a bunch. It's a wonderful portentous effect. Very cinematic.
Until they make sensors that bend, digital pinholes will never come close to what "real" pinhole cameras (like this one) are capable of. This photo is a lot more work than digital, but I believe the effort was worth the result. Keep the oatmeal coming.
man, isn't it pure magic to see an image from an oatmeal box with a tiny hole in it loaded with a plain piece of paper?!
i love how the perspective is really skewed liked from a messed up fisheye lens...;)
great subject and tones, too!
