The Pinhole Experiment

Below are a few photos of, and photos taken with, my little kitset manual pinhole camera from the Natural History Museum. The quality isn't crash hot but some of the blurred results can be interesting. It's photography at its simplest: open the shutter, guess the number of seconds to expose for and slam it shut again. No worries about megapixels here!
