Camera Obscura
Well.. here we are. Back at the very roots.
The CAMERA OBSCURA (we don't like to modern name--the pinhole).
The ZERO IMAGE 612B (http://www.zeroimage.com/web2003/EntryPage/entryFrameset.htm). Manufactured beautifully of teak wood and brass in Hong Kong by Mr Zernike Au, edition number 268, limited to 2 000 editions. Produces magnificent (in formats from 4.5x6, 6x6, 6x7, 6x9 and--the very preferred--panoramic 6x12cm) images on medium format film out of light coming through the 0.25mm hole (f/stop of 158), which forces exposure times ranging up to hours! A highly engaging and exciting toy!!
The two images you see below have been taken in York and on Luton Airport and were the first ones to come out of the wooden box.
Exposure time: 12seconds (on a cloudy day)
Exposure time: 36minutes (in artificial light of the airport lounge.. the crowds passing by have disappeared on the photograph, the only ghost you can see on one of the chairs--a man sitting there for about a quarter of an hour.. amazing).
