The color picture of the pink flowers is very nice. and it is very sharp. The only thing fuzzy is the pink flowers in the foreground. They seem to be on longer stems than the rest of the vegetation in the photo and they are a bit fuzzy because of wind or those flowers moving a bit?The pin hole was hand made but not very carefully. I have since improved the process and can make a very nice hole in .003" aluminum. The f number was is about f 176.
My exposures were far to long, although with a Gimp program I can compensate but the the images are still fuzzy. I may have been too close.
Here is perhaps the best image after tweaking in Gimp.
One thing is for sure, this challenge is addictive.
+1 Hard to get a sharp photo of vegetation. Even the slightest breeze can ruin your photo. Hard structures either buildings or rocks yield better results.The color picture of the pink flowers is very nice. and it is very sharp. The only thing fuzzy is the pink flowers in the foreground.

How far was the camera to those "fuzzy" pink flowers? How far was the camera to the background? Have you taken a picture of something solid (building/truck/tractor/etc) with the same pinhole camera? Do those photos seem fuzzy also?
I'm thinking the flowers moved during the long exposure.

Yes! Usually as Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day approaches I start a list of possible subjects. I maintain a definite bias toward historic barns, railroad trestles, dams, and the like. Stuff that doesn't wiggle and has strong lines and shapes brings out the best in pinholery.Hard to get a sharp photo of vegetation. Even the slightest breeze can ruin your photo.

Pinholery. Best. Term. Ever. Almost sounds rude.Yes! Usually as Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day approaches I start a list of possible subjects.
