I love the art, science, and magic of photography, and oftentimes find myself…obsessed with some aspects of photography, such as pinhole photography, and the art and science behind it. Also, I will revisit this post and include more pinhole images.
Until then, I wish you all a belated Happy World Pinhole Photography Day and, as always, thanks for stopping by,
