Hello,
another pinhole day is approaching. I haven't planned anything yet (apart from taking some pinhole pictures). At the moment the weather forcast promisses rain for next weekend, but a lot may change in a week. If rain it is, I might try some indoor pinhole shots.

Yep waiting for my Noon 6x6/6x9/6x12 pinhole to arrive this week, so I can join in.
-
Rain in the forecast here too... I really hope they change it.
-
Coincidentally on a trip with the photo club at work, to an island on the south coast near Kragerø. Should prove nice. But which cameras to bring? Methinks the 4x5, 6x24 and 6x6.
-
Heading to Portland, Oregon next week for a pinhole weekend! Should be a great day..lots of people showing up from all over the planet! Really!
-
While you're out there, make sure you pay a visit to Powell's City of Books! :)
-
I'll be in Orofino, Idaho for work (near Lewiston), I'm not very familiar with the area so I may try to explore Hells Canyon since it's close. I will have my Voigtlander pinhole with me loaded with a roll of very slow expired 616 film, about ISO 12. Not sure how well that will work in a pinhole so I may come back with nothing. I will have a bag full of other cameras so it won't be a total loss.
-
Its just going to work very slowly ;)
-
I shall be visiting Staithes and Whitby on WWPD, one of my all time favourite pinhole haunts.

That's a lovely shot Paul!
Hopefully the weather down here will play nice this year, and I'll take the Holga 6x12 pinhole out. Or maybe I'll attach a pinhole to a lens board and drag the MPP out.
-
Alright- after work today I'm going to turn one of the lens plug covers for my Mamiya 645 into a pinhole lens!
-
I'll be at home on Sunday, but on Saturday I'll be at a beautiful pondside house in almost-rural Jersey. The same place I took this shot:

I'll definitely take some Holga WPC shots there, but unfortunately it won't be on WPD :(

I think you think good! :D
dunno what I'm doing. trying to build up some interest here but going out alone ain't bad either.
-
For the third year in a row I'll be leading a WPPD event for our local Photography Meetup group. We'll be building simple one shot pinhole cameras. loading them with 4x5 Harman Direct Positive Paper (I've got a stash ;D) and then shooting and developing the shots. If there are any other filmwasters near Charlotte NC who would like to participate, here is the info:

You have a stash? Very provident of you. I have one box and am saving it for a (not so) rainy day. :)

Yes, but not because I was attempting to hoard away a bunch, but because I became enamored of the contrasty look of the images and intended to shoot a ton of it. Which due to life, other film interests, etc, did not happen.
-
Ended up packing just the 4x5. Haven't had time to test it, so hope it is light tight.
-
One of the local TV stations showed the weekend forecast of Friday good, Saturday bad , in big red letters no less... Sunday was still up in the air but supposedly clearing up. I haven't done much pinhole yet so planning to just play and see what I get.
-
For us, Sunday should be cloudy most of the day with temperatures under 10°C...
-
I'm ready. No idea about the framing and a roll of Velvia 50. It will be a disaster. :D
-
Yep waiting for my Noon 6x6/6x9/6x12 pinhole to arrive this week, so I can join in.
Yay it's arrived and it is gorgeous. I only hope that I can do it justice
-
Mostly sunny and 65 in Hells Canyon, Idaho tomorrow, should be a great day for some pinholes! :)
-
Yesterday I converted a 6x6 Dacora Digna to a Dacopin, today I shot a first roll, negs are hanging to dry, look fine so far.
Where do you post your results? New thread?
-
Shot a roll of Pan F+ in my ONDU 6x6 ultrawide. Results to follow.

Nice shots so far! I shot a roll of 616 but won't be able to develop it until I get home in about a week.
-
Enjoying everyone's shots so far. Francois, I like the giant frame!
Two shots from the WPPD Meetup I led today

Me ghosted outside The Light Factory who were kind enough to host our meetup. Homemade pinhole camera (The Squidhole) on Ilford paper, scanned and reversed.
-
Damn you all for posting pictures so quickly! ;D I shot the one remaining exposure on the roll that was in my WPC, then I loaded up a roll of 35mm Fuji Superia 400 which I loaded backwards so it was redscaled. I shot it at "about" EI25, and just kinda guessed how far to wind it between shots, so I'm very curious to see how they came out :)
-
I made a pinhole lens out of one of my Mamiya lens plugs, although my hole size measurements were a bit off,(bigger than I calculated) so most of the roll was blown out -but I liked this one.
-
Nice folks. You are quick about it too :D
Managed to shoot a roll and a half od 120 6x6 on the ONDU, and 3 sheets of 4x5 yesterday. Hope to get round to developing the stuff sometime this week.
-
Nice shots!
I had a little fun with taking hand held photos (Zero 4x5 with FP3000B; shutter speed was around 1/8 to 1/4 sec). Lots of dirt and smudges on the photos as I had a little mishap in my camera bag. After taking the photos I went to the 100 years of Leica photography exibition. So overall a very nice photography day out. :D
-

Thanks! That came as a real surprise. I hadn't been to that place in almost 15 years...
There was also some nice yarn bombed trees...
-
Rainy, chilly almost a no go kind of day, but my husband and I decided to drive up the Turquoise Trail and check out my favorite little mining town of Los Cerrillos, New Mexico.
The light was hit and miss, but a few moments of just enough light to pull the stopper on my homemade "Foxy Mouse" pinhole camera.
Casa Grande Trading Post
exposed for 3.5 minutes
Harman Direct Positive paper sloshed in caffenol!

Love the mouse trap box :)
Does it have a snap-tight hair trigger shutter ;D

Ok, finally dev'd mine! :D Holga WPC, loaded with Fuji Superia 400 35mm, redscaled, shot at roughly EI25:

Lovely pinhole pictures. Especially like the last two from Satish and Becky. Swords to ploughshares - or mousetraps to cameras!
I decided not to publish on the wppd site, so here's the one I love most from the roll shot with the converted Dacora. Inside the tropical greenhouse in our local botanical garden. Efke R25 in Parodinal scanned as color neg film, hence the color.
-
Great job gang! I love me all. The enjoyment of them was equalled by sorrow in realizing the date slipped by me. I am putting it n the calendar for next year ;)
-
Nice NY panorama Indofunk...
-
Thanks guys! Using 35mm film in the WPC was easier than I thought ... just a couple of pieces of foam packing material on either side of the roll to wedge it in place, then I counted 90 clicks between frames. No overlaps, but towards the end of the roll there were large gaps between photos :) I don't know where all those light leaks came from (they were all consistently on the left side of the frame/right side of the camera) because I've never had any lightleaks with this camera before. Maybe it has to do with the film curling in-camera because it's 35mm?
-
I have cheated a bit as I was stuck in a Leica Society meeting all day sunday. I have dragged my zero 6x9 out this morning to photograph Milton Keynes' concrete cows. 30 sec exposure on Ilford Pan F, 5 mins in FD10.

Indofunk!!!
Love that skyline!
Have you thought about putting a little "clicker" on the film canister to count the sprocket holes for winding on?
I have done this and it works great. You won't have those big gaps at the end of the roll and possibly get an extra shot or two off each roll of film.

Thank you! And you know what, the WPC has a "clicking" winder, and I counted 90 clicks between each photo ... worked well for the first shot or two, and then gave me a lot of dead space between the last couple of shots! :D These are well-expired 35mm rolls that I'm using, so I don't really care about conserving the film, but maybe I can figure out a "90 clicks at first, then subtract 5 clicks each subsequent frame" formula or something!
-
What you could do is use a dummy film, mark it with a sharpie for the proper spacing with the camera back open (or with a ruler) and then unwind the film once more and count the number of clicks for each frame.
This happens because the roll gets progressively thicker as you go. This makes it pull more film as you go... Hence the longer frame spacing.
-
Maybe it wasn't clear what I meant by counting the clicks..
True the Holga has a clicking winder, but it isn't linked to the sprocket holes.
The clicker I'm talking about making actually counts the sprocket holes and makes a clicking sound for each one it passes over.
The photo in the link shows it well how it works.
If you lay a piece of film across the opening in the back so you can count how many sprocket holes are being exposed on the frame, then just use that as your number to count when winding each time...plus allow a couple extra for uniform spacing between each frame.
In my regular 120 pinhole Holga, I use 10 as my counting number of clicks since that's how many sprocket holes are across the top and bottom of the opening in the camera. It really works great!
-
Ah yes, I should have inferred the difference. For now, with the rarity of me loading 35mm film into the 120 pinhole camera, I think I'll be fine with guesstimating the number of "non sprocket hole clicks" and subtracting a few every time. I got 5 shots off of a roll of 24-exposure 135 film, which is pretty much how many I should have gotten, mathematically. I don't think I could've squeezed out another, even with very careful counting and spacing...
-
Halfway through mine, that is these are the 4x5 frames I shot. The 120 rolls still need scanning.
They were shot with this:

Then I guess not...

Finally got mine developed and scanned. I put a roll of Pan F+ through my ONDU superwide 6x6. This is one of my favorites.

another from WPPD in Portland..
-
Love the cows and pilot's trees
-
Diane, nice shot, is that Apex on SE Division in Portland? My wife dragged me there a few times, she really wanted to try Pliny the Elder and that's the only place in the Northwest that ever has it.
-
Developed some more film from the pinhole day. Still got a couple of rolls lying around.
-
Which bridge is that? I love bridges, and coincidentally I will be in Frankfurt later this month :D
-
It is a pedestrian bridge in Frankfurt, one of the towns close to where I live. On Sundays it is quite crowded, which also made me realize the difference between shooting pinholes in the city and in the country side. In the country I probably meet 10 people during the day. All 10 greet me friendly and at least 3 ask about the camera. In the city I met probably around 2000 people, 1500 ignored me and 500 looked at me like I am a sick nutter trying to stalk them. On the plus side, this left me undisturbed taking my pictures, and no one tried to hit me, shouted at me or called the police. :D
-
I finally managed to get some developing done a couple of shots one is Chiddingstone Castle, Worthing beach (!) and the other is the river Arun at Worthing which unfortunately I had to crop because somehow I manged to get the sticky tape from the 120 backing paper stuck on the edge.
-
I love your pictures Manuel, they're quite beautiful :) I must try my zero in a city sometime, I figure I look enough of a nutter to keep other nutters well away.
-
Beautiful new pictures, and increasingly I become a fan O2Pilot. Yep, ultrawide is what pinholes do best.

Thanks - considering the quality of the work here, that means a lot.
I've found myself quite pleased (and admittedly a little surprised) with how much I like the photos from that ONDU. Focal length calculates to 12mm in 35mm equivalent.
-
I think I need to make myself a slab type pinhole...
-
I finally got my pinholes developed and scanned. These were photographed with my Voightlander 116 roll film camera converted to a pinhole. The film is expired mystery film exposed at 12 ISO. The pinhole is 0.5mm diameter, I had it set at about a 135mm focal length which gave me f/270. Semi-Stand developed in Rodinal 1-100 for 1 hour. The first one is on the Snake River in Hells Canyon on the Washington side of the river. The other two are the Dent Bridge, an old suspension bridge over the Dworshack Reservoir in Clearwater County, Idaho.

I am a bit late and not really correct - these were not taken on the WPPD but they were printed on the day...
These were taken with the Zero Image 6x6 pinhole in Fossanova Abbey in Italy and printed as lith prints.

Well, that's what I get for being so late in getting my roll processed and scanned: now I have to post mine after those great lith prints! :(
They came out okay - I also need a lot of practice with a pinhole. I haven't taken the ONDU 135 out very much because of the issues with advancing/rewinding and scratching. I'm hoping the tape will work to at least help with the scratching and then I will be more willing to bring it out and practice this summer. I also need to find my damn mini tripod :/
Anyway, here's my offering:

Well, it's not half bad in a way.
I'm thinking about those scratched frames and something just popped in my brain: there's a free photoshop plugin called wireworm that is designed for removing electrical wires in photos. It should work wonders on those scratched frames!
