Pinhole Reflection


Pinhole camera looks easy but its not.
You need the skills, the perfect timing to make a good picture. 
In the end of this assignment, I learned that once you got the perfect timing (that day)
all your other picture will expose properly. 
The hole in the camera matters too if the hole is smaller it exposed less.
If the hole is bigger it exposed more which changes the time too. 
The timing of the picture are different every time i get a different camera and everyday weather is different its a bit hard to get the right timing. 
The problem with my picture was that i wasn't steady enough i keep on shifting and after my picture become blurry and not focused properly.
 Most of the pictures that i took wasn't focused properly and was blurry
but the in the dark room it was a lot of fun. 
Seeing how the pictures gets developed, putting them in chemicals was really interesting and they`re one of the assignments that i really enjoyed.
