If the date in your timezone is the 28th day of April, then it’s WPPD. Get your pinhole camera(s) loaded with film (if you haven’t already) and make some pinhole photographs! It’s HIP, it’s FUN and you will LOVE the photographs made! Once developed/appreciated/printed/scanned you can upload your best here: http://www.pinholeday.org/

Having the pinhole plate secured by a screw in filter holder (Kodak Series V type known to Diana users who like to use filters on their [...]
April 27th 2008 was Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day (in case you hadn’t gotten the hint after me banging on about it for a while now) We walked up the street in the afternoon, it was chilly, cloudy, threatening to rain but with short (very short) moments of sunshine.

OK! Seeing as I lost most of my old posts it is time to start again and repost the more intelligible or entertaining ones (at least as I see them) – also I can say thank heavens for rss feeds, in this case bloglines. Being as narcissistic as all get out, I had this blog [...]
