Erics Picture a Week Blog

This is my new site for my 2007 Picture a Week project. In 2006 I moved to a photoblog format and feel very comfortable with it. This site allows me to post more than one picture per week. Of course it tells if I don't keep up with the weekly posting. Also included is the archive for my 2005 Picture a Week project.

Pinhole fun


I have recently tried another branch of image making using a pinhole camera. I took an old Agfa Billy 120 6x9 pulled the lens, cleaned up the shutter and turned it into a pinhole camera. According to the Mr. Pinhole site, I am now the proud owner of a F180 pinhole camera. This is quite a departure from my other venture using a large format camera. This is truly the point and shoot with 6 second exposures. Here is my favorite subject - the Bahai' temple with the aforementioned camera. HP5 at 400 souped in Thornton's two bath developer for 5 minutes each.

4th of July Home (not Sandy)


Here is a little hope to celebrate our country's birthday. Just a passing thought on a license plate.
