Other than the inordinate amount of time that it took to access this site, there truly was nothing all that remarkable about the image. Yes the exposure was six months long, but the image is still blah...

It was done with a pinhole camera. That is pretty cool.

This is imaged directly to paper -- there is no film. This is a one-off original, not unlike a Daguerrotype from the earliest days of photography.

Actually quite interesting for a pinhole shot. :)
I like it anyway....lol.

I've shot like this :)

How come it's not overexposed? I mean light entered the can every day but the bottom sun trails aren't overexposed.

not overexposed... Partly because it it is exposed on photographic paper, which is much much slower than film, and that .25mm hole is pretty tiny too.

Here are a bunch more: solargraphy

Amazing! Holy cow, very interesting

It's nowhere near as long an exposure as what the OP posted, but the process is the same and I've been wanting to try this for a while...

i sent the link for some friends on another forum, one of them replied that he doesn't know if the photographer himself made the claim about the photograph being the longest exposure, but it's not.
he then posted a link to here.

thank you Amir. Now let us thread our ghostly way.

Reminds me of a photo I saw a couple years ago at an exhibition from Christine Lebeck. She used a pinhole camera to capture an enter night's sleep. A link to her series: //wall-spacegallery.com/displayShow.php?showID=91
