Opposite is an example of a pinhole photograph made with an oatmeal box pinhole camera. This type of camera is made from a common oatmeal box and, instead of having a glass lens, it forms an image with a tiny hole drilled in a piece of aluminum cut from a soft drink can. This photograph represents the mystery of the pinhole camera: " How does a tiny hole make a picture?". Also, it is easy to " lose one's head" while making photographs with pinhole cameras!
