Now if the weather would stay nice for a whole weekend! Just like the small peel-apart Polaroid material, the detail you can pick out in the print amazes me.

I like the Miller Lite glass. Not your typical floral shot. It's cool that you got some 8x10 polaroid stuff. Looks good rob. I like the Miller Lite glass. Not your typical floral shot.

They're going to have to peel the film (ha! get it?) from my cold dead hands. I’ll be there, but you’re not going to get me to admit yet that Polaroid is going away forever.

]]> Comment on What will my pinhole camera see? by rwyoung http://rwyoung.wordpress.com/2008/01/28/what-will-my-pinhole-camera-see/#comment-9 rwyoung Fri, 01 Feb 2008 05:11:55 +0000 http://rwyoung.wordpress.com/?p=74#comment-9 Yeah, well it sounds a LOT harder than it really is... Trust me. The light coming into the camera (pinhole or lens) forms a cone, with the tip of the cone at the pinhole or iris. The base of the cone is on the film. The cross-section of a cone is a triangle. That pretty much covers the mechanics of the geometry. And the angle at the tip of the cone inside the camera will be the same as the angle of the lightrays outside the camera. Everything within that angle (cone) looking out from the pinhole (iris) will be in view of the film. Insert visual aid here... :) Yeah, well it sounds a LOT harder than it really is… Trust me.
