What is pinhole photography?

Picture
A pinhole camera / camera obscura works by light rays traveling through a small hole to form an inverted image of the outside world (as the diagram shows.) Which is then registered on either celluloid film or photographic paper to create a negative image, which can then be transferred into a positive image. 

Pinhole Photography Workshop

In an age where people spend hundreds of pounds on camera equipment and software to create the perfect image, we provide workshops in making cameras out of household objects. We will transform an everyday space into a darkroom and teach you the basic skills needed to create this form of photography.
