Thanks for the link -- I just had it up on my desktop and I was up at the counter talking to a student about pinhole cameras -- I am lending him a 4x5 back off a busted Tacharaha and we were working on ideas to build a cardboard front onto it for pinholes. He mentioned he also was taking ceramics, so it was fun to show him the ceramic pinholes!

I made one from a chamber pot. The pictures came out crappy.

Good God!
A very arty-farty twist to an old medium.
Does the camera come with a dedicated carrying case for overnight bushwalking jaunts?

I like his photos, but those sure are ugly cameras!
