Reminds me of a poem I learned when I was small, I think Robert Louis Stevenson - goes something like - Yesterday, upon the stair I met a man who wasn't there He wasn't there again today I wish, I wish he'd go away. :-) Tina --- Kellie Deem wrote: > I am doing a project for my photography class and I am going ot make a > pinhole camera.

Hi again, Kellie! Try this web page instead of the first one: http://www.nh.ultranet.com/~stewoody/wetalkno.htm Have fun doing "painless decapitations!" Stew Woodruff stewo...@mediaone.net
Re: [pinhole-discussion] Could someone help me?
Kellie, Look at the image on this web page: http://www.nh.ultranet.com/~stewoody/wetalkno.htm. In this pinhole photo my head "disappeared" because I left the scene to close the shutter and the bright light from the window behind me canceled out my head. The same technique was used on this page: http://www.nh.ultranet.com/~stewoody . Sincerely, Stew Woodruff stewo...@mediaone.net
Re: [pinhole-discussion] Could someone help me?
Sounds like a Jole Peter Witken photograph to me. I know he has taken a couple of image where the mans head is gone. james on 3/6/01 3:06 PM, Kellie Deem at kd...@gonzaga.edu wrote: I came across a picture of a man, whose head was gone.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Could someone help me?
Kellie, It is hard to know what happened without seeing the picture. Probably his head was moving; he may have been rolling it around during the entire exposure, maybe to make his head disappear. One day last winter I took a picture of a goose that was standing on ice about six or eight feet from the boardwalk that goes across a swamp in the local nature center. The goose stood still for the entire 1' 45" exposure, but kept pecking at the ice the whole time. It is the only wildlife pinhole photo I've ever made, and it is of a headless goose.

Jeff, This is a new one to me! I knew of it in its variant where the head becomes "inflated" in ratio to the square of the photographer's ego multiplied by the length of the exposure time... -:)) In this case, the head is also removed from the photo but it tends to be a much more sloppy process!

However, I am going to assume that his head was moving, so there would be no clear image of it. Cheers - george = Handmade Photographic Images http://members.home.net/hmpi/ __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Could someone help me?
Yes, this is known as cranial reciprocity failure. Briefly stated, the subject's head size varies in proportion to the length of the time of the exposure, up until a certain point, after which the subject's head will be removed from the photo altogether. Try using faster film in order to keep from decapitating your subjects. Or, use a flash.
