DSLR Pinhole Photography
With the next Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day coming up on 24 April 2011 I thought some of you might want to try doing pinhole photography with your DSLR cameras. This video shows how.
There are many more resources demonstrating this on the Internet. Some take the technique further, showing how to make improved pinholes using thin aluminium or brass shim stock.

Giving a good photo critique
Haje Jan Kamps writes;
Giving feed-back on something is really easy. Giving useful feedback on a subjective matter — such as photography — is, in fact, extremely difficult. That’s why I’ve created sort of a check-list with some tips as to how I like to do critiques.
Wheel of Excellence: Last Week
The Wheel of Excellence at the V&A Waterfront will cease operating at the end of February before being taken down and moving elsewhere.
So if you’ve been putting off photographing it or riding on it, now is the time.
For details of operating hours and ticket prices, visit capewheel.co.za.
Thanks to Paul of the Cape Town Daily Photo photoblog for the reminder.
