Nice work, good thing about the pinhole is that you can't help but get long exposures to create the milky water effect.

a lovely image!! I doubt that you will ever get "tack sharp" images from any pinhole apeture..and yeah with using a lens cap on the lens.. the distcance from the aperture to the film plane is too great and it will always vignette..
What I want to do is to turn my studio into a camera obscura kekeke so i can simply sit in it and watch the world.. I'll tell you something else I was doing tho a day too late for WWPPD.. I was photographing (with the pinhole) out of the windscreen of the car as we drove to Sydney.. what a larf hehehe

Thanks a lot Roger!For me this is ideal, especially the blur that creates so much atmosphere and makes this much more interesting than a tack sharp image.
I made an 8mm hole on the body cap and used an 8x magnifying glass, which only work for macro images but not landscape etc.Please find attached an example. But I also made a hole on the cap of my 50mm (F1.4) lens which works for landscape, but there is too much vignetting around the edges.

umm I drilled a 20mm hole in my body cap then fitted the apeture to it using black electrical tape. The aperture was made by simply pushing a needle into the shim brass of which the aperture is made until it had just broken through.. and that was it.. nothing too complicated.. but you need to bear in mind the smaller the aperture you make the better they work, the more focus you will achieve, due to the smaller circles of confusion. The Canon aperture is not as good as the one I made for the Kodak DCS Pro cam.. but do you think I can find it... kekeke and I am so far, too lazy to make another.. tho I should as all these recent Canon images have been less sharp

beautiful! May I kindly ask how you made the pinhole with your digital cam? I attempted to make one with the lens cap as well as the body cap, but the result was not very satisfactory. Many thanks in advance!
