First Practical lesson.

In our first practical group session we created our own Pin hole cameras from scratch, we created these cameras witha 500ml drinks can.  


A pinhole camera is a simple camera  without a lens and with a single small aperture, which in this case as a 500ml drinks can with a small hole in one side. 
Light from a scene passes through this single point and projects an inverted image on the opposite side of the can and onto the blank film paper that i placed inside the can. 
To the right is the finished image. 
The large dark area was due to it been a really bright day and the light focusing on this area alone, if i were to redo this project, i would try and find an area where the light is evenly dispersed so avoid part of the image been over concentrated with light.
