 that's how i naturally came to the pinhole photography . In fact I began
 pinholing from nothing to refer to, only some childhood reminicences of
 how to
 make a photo with simply a hole in a shoe box. Then I discover I could get
 some
 nice images easily if I took the time to think about what I wanted to do
 and
 what I wanted to get (until then I thought that there were no photos
 existing
 aside the Nikon FM2). It's only after building two or three cameras and
 films
 holders that I discover that there were a lot of people sharing that
 interest
 ans ejoying it at whatever the level of use - from rough cardboard box to
 expensive large format cameras, computer digital work and more scientifics
 users. I must say that I learned more in the last few months about photos,
 camera, eye's vision, paper sensitivity… and above all what can be unique
 in a
 photo than in the last thirty years.
 I build all my cameras, spend a lot of time (and no money) at it. Only
 made
 from
 cardboard and paper, I need them to be beautiful, clothed with nice and
 luxuous
 papers (I'm lucky enough to get a lot of samples from paper manufacturers)
 and
 as solid as wood boxes would be. If I get some good responses to the
 photos I
 just uploaded, I'll send some of my boxes. I love to build boxes and to
 find
 solutions for the shutter, the way to attach the film holder, to make the
 hole
 (printer's plate). I spend also a lot of time to experiment with the wide
 range
 of graphic art films and negative paper.
 What I knew before but became more important when I went to pinhole is the
 importance of the negative. A negative is a complete image and is NOT the
 contrary  of what we see, rather something we CANNOT see. It is more
 evident
 for
 me when I handpaint - it would certainly be easier and faster with
 Photoshop
 but
 I don't want to - my negatives.
 The two photos I upload show a plaster dwarf on one with me (I am the
 tallest
 of
 both), and looking at the top of a ladder on the other. For the more
 technicals
 of you : negative papers 100 x 150 mm and focal length 185 mm, hole 0,51
 mm/diam, etc…
 enjoy, Forgive my english, ans happy new year to everyone

 Dear Jean-Louis
 
 Your upload does not seem to be linked, but that does not matter.
 
 You love boxes and so do I!  One of the things about the pinhole is the box.
 
 The box contains and in containment we can reconcile ourselves with the
 fluxes and changes in the world.
 
 But the pinhole holds a special magic.  From nothing you can create an
 image, it is a truly wonderful thing.  There are no hidden workings or
 barriers.  There is no agent or device between the subject and its image.
 Only air.
 
 Pinhole is not just about the image as is testified by the beautiful cameras
 made by makers.  There is more to the image than the image itself, the
 making, the process weaves a magic that cannot be unravelled from the image
 when seen.
