I have some photos of a ceramic pinhole camera fired this week (during =3D
the blizzard) that I've had a chance to try out today.

Stoneware, it stands about 29 cm tall

This is a detail of the shutter

And this is the first image attempted with the camera, using a beaver =3D
skull as a subject. A sixty minute exposure on a 4x5 in photo paper =3D
negative.

I hope to make some more cameras in the coming months.
