WorldWide Pinhole Photography Day

Great pinhole images by you all as well. Sharp images are cool and all but I also dig a well composed soft focus, pictorialist style image.

RE: the Holga WPC; if you are all familiar with the regular Holga line-up this model is very similar. Construction and quality is the same or perhaps even a tad better for the additional price over other Holgas. I haven't had it for very long (+/- 3 rolls) so by no means am I an expert and I haven't tried other 120 roll film pinhole cameras because this one has a lot of features I like, especially the film advance (frame counter window) and the shutter. At $50usd you can't beat that to see if you like the results. In the future I might upgrade a Zero Image camera which have a lot of the same features in a much prettier, more durable but more expensive package.

gottfried,
lovely looking camera -- nicely made! and the image is lovely ... really like the textured leading line to the church steeple and then to up the power lines and clouds to the sun -- well composed!
 
Thank you Kevin, I love what light can do to simple things ( here it´s ordinary rivets of a railway bridge). Composition was pure guesswork, although I had hoped it would come out like this... clouds were perfect, sun at the right point, exposuretime... well, there are THESE days sometimes... :)
BTW, it seems you had yours too... I like the tram car!

Cheers, Gottfried.

Nice pinhole images, Narsuitus. I esp. like your most recent one of the Queen Theater. Nice framing.

There's a Queen Theater in my neighborhood that I've been meaning to photograph. Thanks for the incentive! :)
