Solargraph camera building

Tonight myself and Eggy have been/are making solargraph cameras. It's like a pinhole camera only you use photography paper instead of film and the images are usually exposed for long periods of time from anything up to a day to 6 months! There is a better explanation HERE (They are mainly used to track the patterns of the sun in the sky, hence the name)

ANYWAY...Here are some photos of our attempts at building some ready to experiment.

Tools: A lightproof container, a pin, photography paper, black paint, tape, aluminium can, sand paper.

Right, apologies for the explanation right now on all this.....currently Sputnik is set up and running as a tester as I speak, hopefully taking a photo of me and Eggy uploading photos of us making things to take photos of things. confusing ey! But in a minute I'm gonna go home and take out the paper in Sputnik, scan it in and see if it worked!
