Positioning the object (aka Sunflowers in kitsch red glass vase) in front of my 1950's Duaflex II Kodak TLR camera. Opening up the view finder on top, I've aimed my digital camera through the viewfinder. And voila.Matt Jonesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7610992.post-1090014835019820922004-07-16T22:53:00.000+01:002004-07-16T23:01:18.420+01:00Brean Rushes

This is simply my bench out on my patio. Yet with this grainy imperfect medium, it seems enchanted, romantic and untouchable.
A box.
A flimsy bit of aluminium.
A pinhole.
