The day is almost here for budding photographers and especially pinhole camera enthusiasts to come together to mark World Pinhole Photography Day.
For anyone interested in participating in the events this year, it is incredibly easy to get involved. Obviously, the first step leading up to April 28 would be to make your own pinhole camera if you haven't done so already. To that end, the following How To Build A Pinhole Camera tutorial is a useful resource to get you started. It is also recommended that those new to pinhole photography perform several test prints prior to the day until you are comfortable with the process and the use of your new pinhole camera.
For more experienced and seasoned pinhole camera users, the official Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day website suggests that you test your pinhole camera ahead of time and ensure that you have all of your light sensitive materials well in advance.
Once you are comfortable with the process of pinhole photography, it is a good idea to take some time to consider what you would like to photograph on April 28. You may like to scout locations, visit pinhole camera exhibitions in your local area for inspiration, or take a look back on your past pinhole images to gain an insight into the results you have achieved. The most important thing is to have fun creating with your pinhole camera on the day.
When all of your images have been captured and printed, either by yourself or a photolab, why not upload them and share your work on the official Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day Website.
