pin hole photography
we done pin hole photography with hand made wooden boxes the two diagrams show how a pin hole camera is laid out where the film page is placed and where the light is aloud in. One of the diagrams also shows
|
The first thing we had to do was just to go out around the school with the pin hole cameras just to test it for the first time, the day when we went out it was not that sunny so we had to test how long we had to leave the hole open for(how much light we had to let in)

The 3 photo challenge :
still life
The first one of the three photos in the challenge was still life.
therefore I went round the school looking for something that would be good to take a photo for the idea/theme of still life. I picked to do a photo of a car as I found it would look really cool using a pin hole camera.
This is the photo I can out with at the end I think the photo over all is good photo.
however if I was to do this photo again I would make sure that the film page is clear and not got hand prints on it before putting it in to the pin hole camera. I would also made sure that I don't leave the hole open for too long which is want I think I did on this photo which is why it has come out over expired which means its had to much light let in to the camera.

movement
The second one of the three photos was one which had some kind of movement in it.
my movement phot didn't come out as well as I would have liked it to be as you cant see the movement at all.
this is because I moved to quickly when taking the photo as the pin hole was unable to get the movement due to the speed of the movement.
if I was to take this photo again to do it better I would make sure that I don't move as fast as I did for this photo I would make a timer to when to move to make sure I can get it with in the pin hole and time I have due to the light out side and the type of day it is when I take the photo if I was to take it again.

portrait
The third photo in the three photo challenge was a portrait photo.
this is my portrait photo that I can up with by the end of the challenge, I think that the photo can out every good as I've never done a portrait pin hole camera before.
I feel like I could have left this pin hole for a little bit longer as the image of me is not as clear as I would have like it to be.
if I was to do this again I would make sure that I stayed more still and did move around also may be that I have to leave the pin hole open longer as I feel I leave is open to short therefor the photo is in expired which is why the photo is to light and unclear and to help the image to be clear I could leave it for a bit longer to help with this.

step by step in the dark room
step 1: can put with an idea for my image what I was going to take a photo of than I got a film paper and add the objects and images that I came up to on to the paper.
step 2: I'm than going to make sure that my photo is all set up and in the right place, I than aloud light to hit the piece of paper to let the image to be expired. I would leave it for about 10 seconds for the more layers I have to the image the longer I would leave it for. step 3:than I would remove all the objects/paper on top of the film paper and place it in to the first tray which is step 4 :than I moved the image to the next tray step 5:than the next tray step 6: than I put it in to water for (5 minutes) to remove any of the chemicals still on the film paper. step 7: than I would put the image up to till it is no longer wet than the photo is done and its ok to put the lights on. |
Typo photo :
WWW: I feel that over all this photo shoot went really good and I was about to get a final image which I'm happy with, and that all the different letters are really clear, and that my work in the dark room working with all the different set went really well within this photo shoot.
EBI: within this photo shoot I found really hard was to get the letters in to the shapes and to make sure they stand they for long a north for the light to get to the film paper. If I was to ever do this photo shoot again I would see about chancing the objects in which I made the letters from to build of the idea I could even add to it by using the same type of object within the same group like for example some thing you might find in the garden or some you use to build things with. |
The idea would be that I would have to make a typo photo off all the letters in the a
Double exposure:
|
I used the cut outs of me to aloud me to make a out line shape of my head and top half of my body.
In this photo I used the black cut out of my head and than filled in the background with different objects I found a round to make this image look how it does. this is my second favourite photo from this photo shoot.
|
WWW: I feel that is photo shoot went really well and I like how I used more than one type of idea within the shape on the out side of the shape using different object to fill up the unused shape and to add the image a lot more than won't it would look like with a lot of unused shape in the background of the photos from this photo shoot.
EBI: to make this shoot better I would maybe think about using my head but from different angles to see if I could than edit the image different in the dark room, if doing that could aloud me to add different images in to the in side and out side of my head cut out. and also check the fixer before starting to edit my images/ making my image in the dark room maybe by testing it with a smaller image to see if it is working good. and if it has the right mix of mixer within it. |
In this photo I got the middle and than added leaves and different natural objects around the outside of it so that the I would have a white out line of my head with a black background with the white leaves around me.
|
In this photo I had the outer line and just added in the inside different letters and numbers so that they would print within the inside of my face when the image was done with all the different set within the dark room.
|
In this photo I again got the inside of the cut out parts and than added butterfly's shapes in to the middle so that when the image was done it would have the white shapes of them after it was done in the dark room.
|
I feel that all my image in this photo shoot have not had a lot of time with in the deepeners so therefore the photos have come out a lot lighter than I would like them to come out, so therefore need time if I was to do a photo shoot like this again I would make sure to watch the time better and give all the photos a lot of time for the black parts to come out.
