Estenópolis, from the silver halide to the pixel

Estenópolis, from the silver halide to the pixel

Today is the Pinhole Day and to celebrate, in addition to take photos, you can visit Estenópolis a website (in spanish), edited by Veronica Espino, dedicated to pinhole photography. This type of photography is done with cameras without lens, which consist of a light-proof box with a small hole (about 0.5 mm) in one side. Its shutter may be manually operated, as with a flap of light-proof material to cover and uncover the pinhole. Estenópolis teach us to build our own camera, take pictures and develop them with different tutorials, techniques and workshops.
