One of the easiest and safest ways to view the Sun – eclipsed and uneclipsed – is to project its image on a screen using a pinhole camera or a pinhole projector. In this workshop, kids will begin by building a variety of different sizes of cameras pinhole cameras using materials from household objects such as coffee tins, shoe boxes and sweets tins.
With a quick look at the black and white darkroom technique, each participant will find a place to place their camera and take their picture before we display these images in a mini exhibition. Solar paper requires no chemicals, just creative imagination to produce a unique piece of photographic art.
