DESCRIPTION

Believe it or not, I've held onto this lunch box since I was a child. It's held all sorts of things from 3 1/2" floppy discs to you name it. I was cleaning out a closet the other day and thought, "why not put this box back in use and modify it into a pinhole camera?" So that's what I did. I painted the interior of the box with flat black spray paint, drilled a .25" whole on the front with a power drill and then attached a 300 micron laser drilled pinhole to the interior of the box. I takes 5x7 photography paper and the exposure time varies for the type of pinhole I'm using and the lighting situation. I thought I would be an interesting idea to create a number of these camera with different designs on the outsite.

As I test this camera I will post photos either to my website or my Flickr photostream.
