Camera Obscura
The Morning News hosts a
gallery of Abelardo's eerie camera obscura pix (excerpted from his
Camera Obscura book [
amazon link]).
I'm fascinated by low-fidelity photography (as evidenced by
my recent Holga camera obsession, check these galleries from the annual
Pinhole Photograpy Day); there's something unique about the retro nature of the whole construction--a light-proof box, pierced by a tiny hole, a sheet of photographic paper, and long exposures. Fundamentally flawed, which is a cool thing. But Abelardo's work takes it to a new level.
