Sunflower - a photo on Flickriver

Sunflower

            Taken with a handmade pinhole lens mounted on a digital slr. ISO was set as high as it will go which allowed for a reasonably fast shutter speed and a hand held shot. It was an interesting experience shooting with a pinhole since there is no focusing and the aperture is obviously fixed at the size of the hole itself. I shot in manual mode adjusting shutter speed to get the correct exposure with help from the histogram. I also made some close up shots in the garden at home with the same set up and was quite impressed with the results. The images have a certain quality that i've not experienced before. This technique opens up a whole new dimension in the art of photography that I'm excited to explore some more.
