Light Dying - Paper

Pinhole camera photography

Whilst completing my work today, I happened to catch a glimpse of a CBBC show which explored the invention of photography from what it was to what it has become now.

One of the main parts of the show included the creation of a pin hole camera, in which light sensitive paper, chemically coated paper, was placed inside a box with a hole in the lid, the size of a pin. This was left in the sun light to create an image onto the paper, and after it has been exposed was washied in water to get rid of the chemicals and develop the image on to the paper.

THIS IS AMAZING!!!

I definately want to have a go at this, another experimentation of the light sensitive dying, this time onto paper using different equipment.

I have ordered some light sensitive paper to give this a try.
