2019 WORLDWIDE PINHOLE DAY 28 April – Our images

Round the [w]hole world on Sunday the 28th of April 2019 pinholers were out having fun – Making their images for the 2019 WPD. Far away from the darkroom (again) we’ve once again fitted a pin-prick in a piece of aluminium fitted to a body cap of our Olympus Pen camera and we went on a road trip in Tasmania from the D’Entrecasteaux Channel to the mountains and back again.

This is the 14th year we have supported the WPD project!

leave a comment »

Round the [w]hole world on Sunday the 29th of April 2018 pinholers were out having fun – Making their images for the 2018 WPD. Far away from the darkroom (again) we’ve once again fitted a pin-prick in a piece of aluminium fitted to a body cap of our Olympus Pen EP-5 camera and we went on a cruise around the New South Wales town of Muswellbrook pinholing…

This is the 13th year we have supported the WPD project!

ABOUT VICKY’S PINHOLE IMAGE:

.

Each day birds of all sizes come to drink from this and it is shared with the two cats who live here too… It is the driest April on record in this region of Australia.

The photo was taken with the intention of capturing the sun flare. Digital capture with hand-made hole on an Olympus EP5 on manual setting.

Lest we forget – April 25th by Doug Spowart

.

ABOUT DOUG’S PINHOLE IMAGE:

.

Each year on April 25 Australian and New Zealand peoples commemorate ANZAC Day in recognition of the sacrifice made by soldiers from our country in the First World War. Floral tributes are laid at memorials all over the country. The message on most wreaths is the phrase ‘Lest we forget’.

The photomontage is made up of 5 images – each photo was taken on an Olympus EP5 digitally with a hand-made pinhole.

APRIL 26–WORLDWIDE PINHOLE DAY: Our Contributions for 2015

leave a comment »

Round the [w]hole world on the 26th of April pinholers were out having fun – Making their images for the 2015 WPD. Far away from the darkroom we once had we’ve once again fitted a pin-prick in a piece of aluminium fitted to a body cap of our Olympus Pen EP-5 camera.

This is the 11th year we have made pinhole images to support the WPD project! The other submissions are listed at the end of this post.

.

Olympus Pen with hand pierced aluminum foil hole, Auto exposure mode, ISO 1600.

VICKY’s Submission:

Great to take this image of a moving subject – I used a digital camera with a pinhole to make this possible.

Charlie chasing a ball … 1/45th of a second @ 1,600 ISO

DOUG’s Submission:

I have made pinhole photos with all kinds of technology from tin cans to cars but what I like the most is how direct sunlight splashes a rainbow onto the image. It’s Autumn in Australia s the two ephemeralities – light and autumn leaves were an ideal subject for pinhole investigation.
