Local photographer, founder of f295.org a lensless and alternative processes photography website and organizer of the annual Alternative Photography Symposium (held at CMU), Tom Persinger will be leading us through construction of our own pinhole cameras and giving us some information about lensless photography. We will use University of Wisconsin Oshkosh's Nick Dvoracek's paper Populist 35mm film Pinhole Camera to learn about and capture pinhole images. Camera kits supplied by Menasha Packaging.

After you've built your camera, go out and shoot! Then return your pictures to us so we can share them with the rest of the IDSA group.

We're really looking forward to this exciting event and finding out how you see Pittsburgh.
See you there!
