This summer, WPPD coordinator Tom Miller asked me to give a
presentation at the Minnesota Center for Photography's Annual Pinhole
Photography Forum, which took place this Sunday. Not knowing exactly
what to talk about, I decided to write a book about pinhole photography
and talk about that.
"The Pinhole of Nature" is inspired by and modeled after William Henry
Fox Talbot's great work, "The Pencil of Nature." It consists of 24 of
my photographs and short essays about them (and pinhole photography in
general). It's my take on the famous questions "Why pinhole?," "What
pinhole?," and "What-me-pinhole?"
It's available for download as a 1.8MB PDF file from
http://idea.uwosh.edu/nick/pinholephoto.htm
If for some reason you'd want to buy a printed copy, it's available for
$9.74 at http://www.cafeshops.com/dvoracek This is the same
company that the WPPD T-shirts were available from. I haven't seen the
quality of the printing yet, and I'm not thrilled about the wire
binding, but the T-shirts were good, so I'm hopeful it will be alright.
