Thank you for your visit and kind comment.

I liked the idea of pinhole photography. I think I will be doing it more frequently.

It requires a different set of approaches to photography due in part to the very long shutter speeds available. The depth of focus is also immense as compared to other types of photography. Sharpness is decidedly lower, however.

Another advantage (due more to the nature of the recording medium, film) is the recording of the highlights. Note, in the above example, the look of the two fluorescein tubes above. I doubt if that area can be recorded like this on digital media, including the more expensive ones, without either blowing the highlights or underexposing the rest of the frame (...in a single frame).
