Let’s see you Out-Weird This
I finally tracked down the website that originated this creepily weird pinhole camera made from the 150 year old skull of a thirteen year old girl.
It appeared on Wayne Martin Belger’s site Boy of Blue Industries.
For more incredibly strange cameras start with his camera archive.
I doubt that I could afford one even if he was willing to sell. But I want the one called Wood.
The Wood Camera is made from Wood, Aluminum, Copper, Steel, Acrylic, and Insects. Most of the camera parts were found in Death Valley, CA. The camera has an interchangeable front plate used to float objects in front of the pinhole. With pinhole photography the focus is infinite. Objects which are a quarter-inch in front of the pinhole are just as in focus as objects 20 miles away.
