Pinholes are kinda hard because you have to make sure that the container you use is completely light tight. Then, obviously, you make a small hole and attach photo paper opposite it in the box. Make a flap over the hole, then expose the paper accordingly, make sure the sun is directly behind the sun and if it's a sunny day, it's trick i'd say try about 10 sec. sometimes that's too long. Then you develope the photo paper as normal, but it produces a negative, which you then have to make the positive. Wo, that's longer than i thought it would be, but if you need anything else about them I've made a few so let me know and i'll try and help, i'm not pinhole expert.

oh, well sorry bout that. But i think they are pretty hard to use so many don't bother. Although they do produce some cool stuff.

you are far away but i am looking at the sad possibility of selling my entire darkroom. I have everything for doing black and white as well as everything needed for color processing. good enlarger alot of papers, alot of equiptment. I got it passed down to me and love it all dearly but i can no longer afford life in general so something has to go... and sadly this couldbe an option...
Let me know if this idea remotely interests you andwe can talk more about what i have what you are looking for and if it comes to it how to get money to me and equiptment to you.
Let me know
