Worldwide Pinhole Day is always the last Sunday in April. On April 30th I was among 979 photo submissions from 55 countries.

VA WAR MEMORIAL STATUE

This year I selected the war memorial statue located in Richmond, VA. It has been a memory and exhibition for all who visits it. I chose this statue it for the massive size and unique angle that it offers pinhole photographers.

This is my custom made 5×7 wide angle pinhole camera. An f/147 lens is mounted in a Polaroid Prontor shutter. All functions are controlled by a cable release. Ilford photo paper was used to make my images.
