Bucket Project 2013

I'm participating in the 2013 Buckets of Artists event in Yuma. My project begun with building a pinhole camera out of a bucket. I'm still refining the camera but at this point it is functional. I'll be uploading digital versions of the images here as I take and scan them.

    I could still see light through the hole..but it was fuzzy.  Apparently the plastic had grown back over the pinhole.  I'm not sure if this is a self healing property of this plastic or if it's due to the temperature extremes the bucket has experienced.  I opened it back up and it's a little bigger than before but working again.  I really need to make a good proper metal pinhole. Back to a 1:30 exposure and looking pretty good!
    This was actually shot by Amy.  I was curious to see what someone else would do with the bucket.  I think she captured the best image with it yet!
    I went out with the new pinhole and tried a 2:00 exposure with a #2 printing filter over the pinhole to see how it would affect the image.  The scan doesn't do this justice at all...
