Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Photography's Longest Exposure

Anyone want to show me how to make one, quick??
LinkWorld Pinhole Day 2010
25th of April 2010 Occuring around the planetSix months. That's right. This dream-like picture shows each phase of the sun over Bristol's Clifton Suspension Bridge taken during half a year.
The image was captured on a pin-hole camera made from an empty drinks can with a 0.25mm aperture and a single sheet of photographic paper.
Photographer Justin Quinnell strapped the camera to a telephone pole overlooking the Gorge, where it was left between December 19, 2007 and June 21, 2008--the Winter and Summer solstices.
'Solargraph' shows six months of the sun's luminescent trails and its subtle change of course caused by the earth's movement in orbit. The lowest arc being the first day of exposure on the Winter solstice, while the top curves were captured mid-Summer.
(Dotted lines of light are the result of overcast days when the sun struggled to penetrate the cloud.)
Mr. Quinnell, a renowned pin-hole camera artist, says the photograph took on a personal resonance after his father passed away on April 13--halfway through the exposure. He says the picture allows him to pinpoint the exact location of the sun in the sky at the moment of his father passing.

They're not complicated
Light tight can, a sheet of photo paper that you put into the can, and a pinhole in the opposite surface. Fasten securely to something, come back in 6 months time and take out and scan the paper. As far as I know it prints out so you don't even need to develop it. 0 -

and i wouldn't tape a DSRL on a lamppost either
but you can do shorter exposures and have some fun. I haven't tried it myself though :P0 -
