@fesix and I gave our little pin hole camera (aka an empty can of nuts)
another shot and exposed a photosensitive paper for a few days.
The result is flipped, inverted and with an added color profile.
I like what u get out of can of nuts :D

Solargraphy with a pinhole camera directly on photosensitive paper

@fesix and I had our first go with solargraphy (multi day / weeks / month long exposure on photo paper ). On our first attempt we weren’t that patient and only exposed for a week. The (inverted) result is still quite impressive!

Result of a week long exposure on photo paper

Since October last year, I have had a set of solargraphy cameras set up at Rooftop Movies.

Their season, and mine, have now wrapped, so here's the writeup and the photos!

Don't know what solargraphy is? Or Rooftop Movies? Everything is explained!

A bit of an odd #Solargraph , in that this goes (more or less) from equinox to equinox, rather than Solstice to Solstice. Taken with a 3d printed camera, which, despite being up for the entirety of winter, was completely dry inside.

Post processing in #Snapseed .

Mostly monochrome, with hints of sepia. The foreground is a rooftop, with another house in the distance. Above the roofs are pale parabolic arcs, interrupted by darker segments.

I've been published!

Well, sort of. At the start of this year I set up some of my #solargraph cameras at #RooftopMovies - and they have just published a writeup, complete with link back to my project page!

One of the can camera solargraphs. Very heavily water and ant damaged, but startlingly beautiful nevertheless.

An almost abstract image of the sun's arcs with rivulets of water damage and specks of ants all over.

This is one of the Puck images, with the Giant Pendulum in the foreground and the Leaning Tower behind.

Postprocessed in Snapseed.

A giant tripod with a leaning tower behind it. Behind it all, the trails of the sun from the last six months form a series of arcs.

For the past six weeks I have been working on a #solargraphy project with #RoofTopMovies and #Artrage .

I have just wrapped it up.

#Solargraph from my Rooftop Movies #solargraphy project. This one is a #SolarcanPuck looking West from the South end of the outdoor cinema #Artrage set up on the roof of the Roe St carpark in #Northbridge.

This camera was set up for three weeks.

Things to look out for:
The reflection of the #sun path in the giant mirror ball.
The Rooftop Movies sign.
Casual tables for patrons use before the movie starts.
The three weeks of sun paths with some gaps showing clouds.

Many thanks to Artrage and Rooftop Movies for helping make this happen. Stay tuned for more from this project.

A blue circle in a black background. The blue circle has a yellow-green stripe from top right to near the centre of the lower third. There is a circular object near the base of the stripe, and a sign below it.

So I do this experiment every 6 months where I put photo paper in a can with a tiny hole to record the sun light… Well, this year's #solargraphy didn't quite work out as planned — paper got wet, not enough light, … but there is some beauty to the imperfection as well.

Six Months with a Puck
Just after winter solstice to today. At the top you can see the anemometer of my weather station. This is looking out over the roof of my house.

This has the most amazing colours of all the solargraphs I have ever taken.

Scanned with #Pixel6a and post processed in #snapseed

#solarcan #solarcanpuck #solargraphy #solargraph #analog

A yellow-green and green disk against a dark blue woodgrain background. In the disk is a central area of orange, and an off-white thin arc. From the top of the dis is the shadow of an anemometer arm.

This is a three month #solargraph taken at the #Gingin #GravityDiscoveryCentre .
This was taken with a #SolarcanPuck attached to the underside of the #RadioTelescope they have there. About six weeks in, they rotated the dish, resulting in two distinct sets of sun trails, at about 90 degrees. Scanned with #PhotoScan and processed in #Snapseed.

#photography #solargraphy

A blue tinted view of the underside of a radiotelescope dish, looking up at the sun's path. There are two sets of paths, crossing at close to 90 degrees. The sun's paths are almost white.

The #Perth #Astrofest 2023 is coming up on November 18!

I am thrilled to be able to say that one of my #solargraph images was accepted into the exhibition!

There is a People's Choice award, and you don't have to attend to vote. Do have a look at the amazing work that has been chosen to be exhibited, and vote here:

If you are in Perth and can make it, come along and take part in this amazing festival of #astronomy , #astrophotography , and #space!

A grid of nine circular solargraphy, each showing different sun paths.

Pic of the day: pinhole camera made from a hollowed out book and expired Ilford Multigrade IV RC paper. Day 13 of #photoctober2023: stripes + far away (the sun is far away, right?). Exposure time about a month.
