Not sure if this is the right subject for a year long challenge. So far not totally happy with the results. But, as they say, practice makes perfect, right?

This is in colour by the way! It was a very grey day here and everything looks monochromatic.

Need to clean my sensor I think, or this will drive me insane cleaning the dust spots off!

This looks like it needs a poem to go with it :)

Wow, I like it! I like the happy colours in all that fog-like look.

Pinholes aren't easy I commend you for attempting it for this challenge. I look forward to seeing how you progress.

Like this, very hazy and wistful.

looks like a glimpse out of the corner of my eye as I drive up the mountain.

It's fascinating how these pin hole shots come out, the contrast in this is quite good and your selection of 7 trees creates a nice balance.

There is be barest hint of green in this that sparks up the monochrome feel. Nice shot. Fascinating.

Perfect setting for a pinhole! This works very well.

I really like this -- you have left just enough "white space' on the left and bottom to give the composition a dynamic feel.

The queen of blur has arrived! I going to give this a shot sometime this year, if I can find the right subject.

I don't think anyone could have painted this any better. It's a beautiful image.
BTW do you have a picture of your gear?

I love this. It would be great printed on a large canvas.

It's beautiful.
I agree with you. I'm also unsure what will work with the pinhole but I bet by the end of the year we will know. It has been so dark (and dreary) here I have to use 15 sec exposure and that is with an iso of 1600 with the 200 micron pin hole. (only need a 2 to 5 sec exposure with the 600 micron but so blurry)
Your shot is an inspiration-I'm going out now looking for trees.

At first its a blurry mess, then after a few moments it starts to resolve into moving, growing trees. Cool.

First, let go of the sensor dust...even after a professional cleaning you will see some crud with the pinhole. Shoot higher ISO or dark subjects, it will blend right in! ;)

Second, I also find it very difficult to choose a proper subject or scene, and if you are caught without a tripod, it requires extremely bright light or high ISO for hand held images, unless of course the goal is more blur

I think you made a splendid image here; it's cold but warm and inviting.

Not sure why your not happy with this shot... I would be. The blur sets the mood nicely, and is complemented by the monochromatic colour shot.
