Mr. Churchill again as my favorite pet model, this time without the hassle of focusing!   The grain and the vagueness gave it a bit of a retro look.

I kept it simple - just some aluminum foil, some lens step-up rings to act as “canvas” stretcher, and a needle to make a very small pinhole.  It took a few attempts until I had a good enough aperture.  I cheated and used a flash, to use normal exposure times.  You can see the setup here.

  1. 2 excellent shots given the difficulty of getting sharp photos using a pinhole…. at least I tried it and didn’t get one single sharp shot
