I made a pinhole camera out of an empty Pringles potato chip can and I even got it to work good enough to make an image.

This was the image from my PringCam 1.0 - I would deem it not a failure because it did turn out an image. The subject was tiny diecast tractors made by Ertl, less than an inch long. The problem was, when I started the nearly four-hour long exposure, the wind was not blowing at all. But, by the time the exposure ended, it had picked up to a brisk breeze and the tiny weeds in the background, (which look like trees) were blurred from motion. At least I know my PringCam works. Now, to work out a few minor bugs and try it out again under the new name of PringCam 1.1.

Cardinal Lane In Pinhole

The start of the little lane across the street that goes around the houses that line the street where I live. It’s called Cardinal Drive. The reason the picture is crooked is because I used some cut-down 120 film and it's hard to tell in the dark when you're loading it if you got it straight or not. Taken with my eighty-seventh camera.
