April 27th 2008 was Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day We walked up the street in the afternoon, it was cloudy with short moments of sunshine. The whole family (including the dog) helped me to participate in this years pinhole photography day with much hilarity ensuing. This is the first in a two (perhaps three) part video documentation of the day. Most of the footage taken by my eldest daughter ~ I think she did a great job! The lovely backing music

    Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day (part 2)

    After taking pinhole photographs with the family, I got out my pinholga with the Polaroid back for some close-up pinhole stuff like tomatoes and, ummm, tomatoes. Not half as amusing or interesting as the World Wide Pinhole Photography Day (part one) video, but does show some Polaroid transfer technique as well as the usual pinhole fare. The backing music is again, an edit of "The Simple Truth" by tetragrammaton productions - http://www.tetragrammatonproductionsltd.com

    Loading Film Into the BBF

    by artpunk

    Uploaded

    An otherwise boring (insomniacs if you need a cure look here) tutorial on how to load film into your BBF (blackbird,fly) camera. This can be a bit fiddly until you have done it a couple of times (loading film into a Horizon panoramic camera is even more of a challenge IMHO), so I hope this visual guide helps! Please note - if you find that you are winding the film on after loading and the film advance knob does not 'lock' in place then this means

    Making a Polaroid Pinhole Camera

    Uploaded

    DO NOT WATCH THIS unless you are interested in making a pinhole camera out of an old polaroid packfilm camera. It's pretty BORING if you do not fit the above criteria. Just over seven minutes of my first attempt at constructing a pinhole camera out of junk and an old polaroid camera (so I can get instant pinhole photos rather than waiting for the lab to process my film, I've always been a bit impatient) Being my first attempt at anything like this,
