Hi:

I've been asked to give a presentation to our local camera club, in
January, on pinhole photography. I am going to bring the cameras I use
(that a friend made for me) and the prints I made with them.

I would like to give people an idea of the wide range of work done with
pinhole cameras, not just the iamges, but the kinds of cameras used. Does
anyone know of references for pinhole cameras and the pictures made
with them? (yes I am going to bring Renner's book)

I am going to bring the prints I have recieved through the pinhole
exchange list.

How about a theme of making a teaching collection of pinhole iamges and
with details about the cameras and techniques used to make them.

Could we make something like this that could be easily reproduced on
paper for classes ? A collection distributed as PDF files?
