- Original Message - From: Mike Vande Bunt mike.vandeb...@mixcom.com Well said! (You don't have to pay royalties to Mel Torme for the use of that line, do you?) ;-) What do you mean, Mike? Last nite I was roasting some chestnuts on an open fire, when suddenly came to me the fact that people try to say Merry Christmas in so many different ways these days, some trying to be inclusive, some trying not to offend others, some trying to offend others and some trying to be just politically correct. In my city's City Hall, what always was known as a Christmas tree, now it is called Holiday tree!. Anyway, as I said, I was roasting these chestnuts on an open fire, when the line just came to me!! in part for the above in part 'cause I thought I could used the shell of a chestnut to make a pinhole camera. :-) Guillermo

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Season's greetings to all!
Hi all pinholers around this list ! I sincerely join Chuck, Guy, Kurt ( + the coming ones) to express my thanks to Gregg for all the silent work he does for the Pinhole Visions, the list, WPPD and for the quality of tools he offers to our p at ???munity for sharing our passion. Today is Christmas, and 2002 is soon ending. A look backwards may be useful but the dark clouds looming ahead [Guy] weight heavily on my thoughts. As I know that all of you on this list have a special awareness of how beauty, creativity, life may exist through a tiny simple hole in a box, I would like to ask you for 2003 to keep on defending your generous vision of life . At a time where there is more and more discussion everywhere about the status of Images, the relations between Image and reality, truth and representation, I am sure we pinholists are touching the essential point of this issue. If you are not sure of that, just transform a room into a Camera Obscura in which people (of all ages) may enter and invite them to discover (= to feel physically + with their thought) what is une image. Things are never the same after this experience than before! And we all come back to the oldest questions stimulating mankind through philosophy, religions, art, science,... that makes Life ! Pinhole practice opens our eyes to the essence of Light, Space, Time, Image. I'm sure it opens our brain, I'm sure it opens our heart, too I was just wanting to wish you all happiness for the future , not only material comfort but rather Light in your hearts. I have been much too long, but I cannot dissociate my art practice from my vision of the world and I needed to share it [just a bit ;-) ] with you. Thanks for your patience, my friends. Now, plenty of Light /Time impressions/expressions for you and the folks you love Plenty of Peace for our planet !

RE: [pinhole-discussion] Season's greetings to all!
As I check my email here before heading to bed, it is 11:26 Christmas Eve and we have an inch of snow here in Chillicothe, IL. I plan to shoot a few photos among the celebrations tomorrow. I whole hardly agree with Guy: *In the midst of this, I just want to wish you all a very happy time of celebration when the bells start ringing Christmas. May 2003 be full of happy moments for you and your close ones, despite the dark clouds looming ahead. May this be a year of generosity towards those in need. And, for us, the community of pinholers, may this be a year of great fun and great creativity with our strange photographic contraptions. And, finally, a very special thank to Gregg Kemp for continuing to be year-after-year so generous with his time and energy in ensuring that this list and the Pinhole Visions web site/ressource allows us to get together and share our common passion. Guy** Thanks Greg for all you do and thank you to all pinholers around the world whose talent and creativity inspire and challenge me every time I open my email! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! ~Chuck !
