Re: [pinhole-discussion] crocker pictures
Frankly, I didn't believe it myself so I made a second cracker camera and tried again. Same sharpness but I'm having severe problems with light leak in the box. Also, I think that if you don't spread the opaque-making peanut butter right up to the edge of the hole you're using, you get some "glow" through the cracker surrounding the hole, resulting in some overall fogging. I'll post more images as I get them. - Original Message - From: James Kellar To: Sent: Wednesday, November 29, 2000 7:20 PM Subject: Re: [pinhole-discussion] crocker pictures > on 11/29/00 7:53 PM, William Erickson at erick...@ic.mankato.mn.us wrote: > > > View first effort at > >> http://www.p at ???/discussion/upload/images/cracker_final_copy.jpg > > I find it hard to believe that, that image was taken through a hole in a > cracker.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] crocker pictures
Wow! That's an incredible image, considering the source of the pinhole. Your concept of photographing food with food is neat -- I hope it turns out well. I recall a photo in Renner's pinhole book that was taken using a saltine cracker, but it used all the holes so there were something like 9 overlapping images. Contrast was low, probably from light leak through the cracker itself (no light-blocking peanut butter...). I would look up the specific details, but the book is all the way across the room . . . ;-) Mike Vande Bunt William Erickson wrote: > I uploaded my initial cracker image.
