Re: Motivations

Bernie,

I can't wait to see your results!!! I've wanted to do a pinhole movie for years, but
just let it become a passing "thing to do", and never got further than dreaming about
what it would look like.
Way to go getting the Park Services stirred up and out to see the real people behind
the images. If I get someone's attention while "pinholin'" I feel that I was supposed
to be there just so they would ask me the question; "What the hell are you doing?" And
then you let them have it with a short course in pinhole!

"Keep on Pinholin'",
