Selfies from the Brink

Pinholing

Bandparent has done some beautiful shots of lampposts. Inspired by him, I began photographing the lampposts of our town with my HOLGA-pinhole-lens. 
I am back to shooting with my pinhole-lens because it doesn't allow me much control. When I look through the viewfinder, I see mostly black, so it's basically point and shoot. This is quite a difficult exercise for me, as I'm someone who loves to keep every detail in view. I'm discovering that giving your camera a certain amount of liberty can be very rewarding. 
This photo has no lampposts, but I loved the composition.
I will post some of the pinhole-lamppost-shots in a couple of days.
