Ten years have passed since I met Pinhole Photography. While I have taken pictures of Parisian monuments, landscapes and show-windows, I have been taking also indoors, little by little, pictures of fruits and vegetables I found at the "marché" in Paris.
Different from outdoor shooting indoor shooting
needs much longer exposure time, almost half an hour a shot and I have
worked them out for such interests as:
- Is it possible to reproduce the light the
objects diffuse in the paintings of "Still Life", which are said
to be painted by the help of Camera Obscura in 17th century?
- What will be represented with a pinhole,
not the human eyes nor the lens of camera, in gazing the objects?
In serach of better quality of images I used
a 8 x 10 inch second- hand camera reformed by myself. You can see this
camera in the gallery.
