"Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will

  To strive, to seek, to find and not to yield..."

 -Lord Alfred Tennyson

This is an excerpt is from the poem Ulysses. From my perspective, these lines are saying that despite age, one should never lose their will to live life and have new experiences. People should always be looking for ways to improve themselves and to learn new things.

Experimental Pinhole Photography

Pinhole photography is a form of analog photography. Pinhole photography is a great outlet to use to learn and understand the basic principles of photography, such as that light travels in straight paths, etc. Pinhole photography also has lots of things that can be manipulated. Therefore, pinhole photography is a great opportunity to get creative and try some experimental techniques.

For example, experimental photography can mean you experiment and manipulate hoe the final image will look by manipulating the picture-taking process. In this photo, for instance, using a double exposure technique, you can make it appear as if you have overlapped two images.

Experimental photography can also mean experimenting with what you use as the camera itself. In this instance, using a pumpkin. Once you understand how pinhole photography works, the possibilities are almost endless.

Brassaï explored photography at night. He experimented with using the lighting that was available at night. He published a book of his collection, which was called Paris De Nuit (Paris At Night). The subjects of his work was often prostitutes, pimps, etc. Since some of his photos were shot in bars and clubs, he sometimes used a flash bulb to get a better shot.
