Pinhole Photography

Since being in Sweden i have become very interested in exploring different aspects of photography. For me one of the most alluring aspects of it is really the basics of how the light travels and forms an image so simply. The idea of a pinhole camera or camera obscura has been noted about as early as 300 BC in China. Its such a simple technique that one small hole can create images. Artist have been blacking out room with just one single pinhole to create the outside image inside...so many fascinating possibilities with these simple optic techniques. Bellow are two very basic images i took with just a tin can and some light sensitive paper.
