I'm the wrong guy to listen to about pinhole (don't like them, in gen.) but this seems to work well. The vignetting seems to work w/ the wheel, curve of the blade/spikes. Subject works fine w/ the softness. 'Just a handsome treatment of country life.

Thanks for the comment Mr Silver. Pinhole is quite difficult to do, you have long exposures that require a bit of mathematics, no way of really checking the composition, staying out of the wind or anchoring the camera so it wont move, no lens correction and long waits where you have to field annoying questions by passersby (funny how people try to get out of camera shot, when they could stand still for 15 minutes without having any impact on the photo)........then I used photopaper for the negative, which is another world of pain.
In the end its all about the picture and I learn from challenges.
 
Nice pinhole. Seems too sharp to be a pinhole, but I guess that's what the 8x10 does for you. And maybe one day someone will invent a pinhole with reflex viewing ... :smile:
 
Hey @awty , for $2.99, I just bought an iPhone app called "pinhole assist". Somebody at Photostock showed it to me. It uses the iPhone camera as a light meter and displays an EV value. And it has loads of film and camera combinations and gives an exposure time. I have it set up for my Zero Image and TriX film, and it shows both calculated exposure times, and exposure times with reciprocity corrections. I haven't tried it yet, but I intend to in both sunny and cloudy conditions.
