Ready, steady PINHOLE!

Ready for the off! The Victorian Teapot cam, The Stella ceramic cam, a ply kit cam, the Retro Teapot cam, the Victorian Sewing Box cam and the Zero 5×4″


World Wide Pinhole day at Rachel’s Darkroom, Inky Cuttlefish

Fantastic weather! Strange cameras – well mine at least! Pinhole-tastic!

Stella Cam up and Running!

My first ceramic pinhole camera is firing on all cylinders! Next version requires some tweeks as the lid is not light tight and still requires gaffa tape- but it was my first attempt at making a ceramic lid! Took some test shots last week and as the light so bright timings were only 3-5 elephants!

Ceramic pinhole air drying to prepare for bisque firing; hope doesn’t crack! Have applied black matt slip inside, and glazed test tiles to determine exterior finish.
