Oh man, you was robbed! Does not anyone get this picture? Yes pinhole cameras are soft focus, and fuzzy and all that, but you captured the very basis of what started photogrphy.

I still think this is a way cool image, and appreciate the effort that went into this.

Thanks Karen, you are probably responsible for this - I had residual-pinhole-brain as a result of your Zone Plate entry:

It was a challenge to expose this so both the hand and the box interior were recognizable - a small amount of light leakage combined with a too-large pinhole.

I had the exact same idea for this challenge, but when push came to shove, no time to get the shot taken and entered. Glad to see a camera obscura/pinhole-y shot make it into in this challenge - the perfect, and perfectly appropriate, use of a cardboard box, for DPC! Really digging that slight Shroud of Turin effect you have going on the far wall of the box.

Very cool. I like how it looks like there's eyes in the back too.

Is it me or is this shot OOF? Perhaps I do not understand the Pinhole camera's construction.

I'm having a real hard seeing this. My mind knows what it should look like, but things seem noisy/grainy.

Nice concept. Just needs to be sharper.

Fab idea but the end result is a little too "twilight zone" IMO

This is the most creative image this challenge! I expect to see this one in the winner's circle.

Very cool idea. Not the best PHOTO IMHO, a little grainy and blurry and the subject is too far to the left and cut off. But you get points for the idea.

Really cool concept, but it's really challenging to make this look good. I have to give you extra points for creativity.

Groovy. I used to love making these. Think i'll make one, you've inspired me. Great shot and well done.
