Photos from the weekend

26th April 2011, (0 Comments)

Sunday was Easter Sunday, but it was also World Wide Pinhole day. So, on Saturday I grabbed my new Diana Multi Pinhole Operator and headed to a local park to shoot a roll of film.

Sadly, it will take 10 days to get my roll back from the lab, but here are some pinhole shots from my iPhone, using the Pinhole camera app.

I took it to Denam Estate Park because of the film I was using.

I have never used IR film before, but while looking on Flickr of what other people have shot with this film, I decided this would be the perfect spot to shoot.

IR film turns water and sky black, and trees a bright white.

I explored a bit, just to see what I could find.

After this nice walk in the park, I baked some Easter Cookies. Very Tasty.

Worldwide Pinhole Day

Digital Pinhole of Hodges Park Lake

As I hinted on Day 95, with my photo of the book I am reading, Worldwide Pinhole Day is coming.

Worldwide Pinhole Day is April 25th. I have wanted to make a pinhole camera for a while now, and shoot with it.

I have on various outings used a digital pinhole lens; with very little success, but I think as a group it will be fun.

I have seen some awesome pinhole photographs on Flickr, and it can be a fun project to learn about photography with.

I am trying to get a group together for April 25th, to meet at the Buddy Holly Center in Lubbock, TX and go on a photoadventure armed with pinhole cameras, with the simple goal of taking great Lo-Fi photographs with a pinhole camera.

Event Info on Facebook.

Plan on meeting at around noon on Saturday, and bring your camera and money for lunch.

There are a variety of options available online for building a pinhole camera.

I am making 1 based on one of the paper designs in the book I have.
