Wednesday: Today I proposed a new independent project. It is called a pin hole camera. It is basically the simplest form of a film camera made out of simple supplies like a box and aluminum sheets. We will also being developing our own pictures in a dark room.

Here is a photo of my proposal: My partner is Maia. We are getting 60 points over the course of 4 days. Our goal is to develop at least 5 photos each.

The Science behind Pin Hole Cameras:
- When light encounters mater it either is reflected, refracted, of absorbed.
- Light is electromagnetic energy that travels through space in straight lines.
- The pin hole is so small so that it capture the image , because rays of light coming from the pin hole should only hit the one spot that you are taking a picture of.
- Silver Halide is used to develop pictures

Thursday: Today we started constructing our pin hole cameras. This is what they look like so far. As you can see they are really simple. It's basically light proof box with a simple shutter on it. Later the boxes will be sealed with electrical tape. With photo paper in the back of it. Tomorrow we will try and take a few of our exposers and develop them later.
