But she just couldn't think of any thing that interested her - and her
partner really like photography.

I'm going to try my best just to be a resource - but the idea of turning
the entire gym into a giant pinhole camera is really appealling :)

That would mean devoting a significant portion of the gym to her project
- maybe they could just make the gym a pinhole camera for one of their
science periods.
