I didn't take these today, but here's a couple of shots I took with the lensbaby pinhole optic a few months ago.

I'll be processing mine tomorrow. Holga with lens removed and home made pinhole.

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.

Much as I love pinhole...I've never managed to participate.

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!

 

[Gottfried Sandow]

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.

I did it for the first time this year. Kind of fun seeing what people have done. Makes me know I need to work at it more - some get some really sharp photos. Many are 4X5 which helps a lot.

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! 🙂

Narsuitus -- enjoyed all three, but the statue "reaching for the sky" was easily my fav of the bunch. terrific job!
