All these messages regarding film canisters made me make my first pinhole
image in about 5 years or so. I did not have any film, but I have some
Ilford B&W satin finish RC paper, some 5 years old, some dektol that is
turning brown but still worked half decently. Took one of my 35mm canister
cameras, loaded it with paper and made an exposure of a faucet (very
creative, eh!), 5 minutes @ 2x100watts incandescent bulbs.

As always, technique more or less there, but artistic merit.......well,
judge for yourself: http://ca.geocities.com/penate@rogers.com/faucet.jpg

If you want to see a larger, uncropped version, you can really appreciate
the texture on the B&W paper used to make the negative. BTW, the negative
was scanned on a flat bed scanner:
