Zero Image pinholes

A while back I took a number of portraits of my friend Crysta. In addition to color film and digital shots, I also took some black and white photos of her. I subjected her to a couple pinhole images. Fortunately, she didn't need to sit long since it was outside on a sunny day (in the past I've forced people to sit still for 20 minutes for a pinhole that didn't turn out...brutal!). Now that I have an Epson Perfection V750 scanner, I can actually scan my larger negatives at a much higher quality (oh happy day!!).

In honor of my new scanner and Crysta, who said she was most interested in the pinholes, here they are.

This is part of a project I've been working at off and on...pinholes of people looking at books. Sometimes you can see the pages in motion. Sometimes less so.

Sorting

I've been gradually sorting through old photos recently. Attempting to match pictures with negatives (if I can find them) and organizing the negs into labeled sleeves in binders. This has never been an issue with my black and white work since I always put those negatives away. Color work is different since I don't do the developing and I often receive the negs long-sleeved and rolled up after they've been scanned.

Anyhow, the nice thing about going through old photos is occasionally finding little gems that appeal to me now more than they did at the time. Here's a shot I took in Ft. Lauderdale in 2009 (fortunately, I was able to find the negatives so I could scan the original file in and work from that).
