21 December 2021 - 21 June 2022. Can had been pulled down and crushed, but I found it, and like how it came out.

Dragon Tooth Beach

22 December 2022 - 21 June 2022 This beach doesn't have an official name but there are rocks on the cliff that look like a dragon's tooth... ( and remind me a little of the place called "Dragon's Teeth" on Maui )

Shell Beach

30 December 2021 - 20 June 2022. The can was crushed by someone throwing rocks at it ( you can see the rocks in the foreground! ) but was still there. The colors on all of these are just from inverting the scanned photopaper... I don't edit them. This has a crazy green

20 June - 21 December 2021. cntl-z to see on black background. I usually walk by this spot a couple times a week. The can-camera moved some when we had a big storm the 3rd week of October . It was still there a couple weeks ago, but when I picked it up yesterday there had been a rock slide and it was at the bottom of a cliff in a pile of rocks! But I kind of like it!

Another "solstice to solstice" solargraph... the can is aimed up so that the sun crosses on a straight line in the middle on the equinox. The top is the summer solstice and the bottom is the winter solstice. 8x10 unicolor positive paper in a pinhole camera. :) yes I feel a little silly posting it in the solargraphy group where I'm the only member. I think we need to take all the pinhole groups and combine them into one.

Almost 1/2 year of sunsets... the can was moved. You can see where the line on the bottom stops, the moment the camera was picked up, and the streak of light when it was moved, and then 2 days of streaks on the lower left while it sat on the ground in a different place before I went and got it. Fortunately the person who picked it up did not open it :)

Equinox

Solstice to solstice in a pinhole camera that is aimed upward so that the equinox is a flat line in the middle. 22 Dec 2019 to 20 June 2020 8x10 inch unicolor positive paper ( not developed, just scanned and inverted )

equinox solargraph ii

Solstice to solstice: 21 Dec 2018 to 21 Jun 2019. This is an 8x10 inch pinhole paper negative inside a canister, aimed so that it is pointed at an altitude of 90° - my latitude. At the autumnal equinox the sun traced a straight line across the middle. The winter and summer solstices are at the bottom and top. In the spring, tall grass grew up in front of the can, leaving those tall shadows. Below the sun streaks are the tops of some distant eucalyptus trees. The white "stains" around the edges are where water damaged the paper emulsion. You can also see a Solargraphy Map
