I've Been Alphabetizing the Pinhole Project

I just finished reorganizing the Bainbridge High School students folder. Instead of by year as it was, it is now organized by photographer, alphabetized by first names. All the images made by one person are now in the same place. I found many double uploads (how did that happen?). I also found many students who had made ten or more images and thus got their own folder. Their folders are under the Bainbridge High School Student category. All of the BHS students were pioneers who began with the pinhole project in a time when I had no idea what it might be. It has definitely evolved over time. In the beginning I simply wanted to bring Pinhole photography to students without access to a darkroom. Please visit the site several times and take a second and third look and understand, as I am beginning to, how these cameras see. I will add more tags as time goes on. I will change out featured images—there are so many from which to choose. Next I will alphabetize the other folders. Right now, I need a break. And congratulations to the BHS students who made over 2200 images….Below are some of the standouts just from the first few letters of alphabet. So many great images. From left to right, top row: Abigail Harrison, Abe Muldrow, Aidan Parrish, Abigail Mikami; Middle Row: Akio Hanson, Alyssa Estes, Allison Spence, Anika Vroom; Bottom Row: Annabelle Hill, Asher Van Slyke, Anton Easterbrook, Amy Stephens.

Such Great Images from Bainbridge High School Students

I have spent the last few weeks working on the Pinhole Project website, going through my external hard drives and thumb drives and updating updating updating. The students at Bainbridge High School have made some incredible images over the last five years. I have put them on the website in eleven folders which equal about 1800 images. I loved doing this labor, and labor it was to make the website better and to begin to create an actual archive. I felt like I really got to know the images in the project in a new way. I decided to take out 10 or so if I can only choose that many. So I went through the archive and marked the ones that popped out to me. I ended with 95. Way too many. I am hoping to post 30 here. We shall see. Hard to leave so many out. I have always said there are no bad pinhole images. So true. Each one is unique. You can find these scattered throughout the BHS folders. Here are the best of the best. Thirty-two total. Enjoy looking!

Bainbridge High School Images from Fall 2016 Uploaded

I have spent the last few days uploading approximately 180 images made by the students in Bainbridge High School's photography program this last fall.  They made a wonderful variety of images, most in regular small metal cans but some did round tins and two hole tins.  I love the variety and color that they managed to get.  My goal now is to collect a few months worth of images at a time and get them uploaded.  Check out this gallery on the Gallery Page.  It is a good one!  Here are a few of my favorites.
