      amazing matchbox pic. What was your exposure time?

      I assume that you've also got a photo with the camera attached to one of the blades on the windmill? That would be very Duran Duran wouldn't it!

      Dammit that's my next post ! ;-)

      Exposure was about 8 seconds I think... Plus ages waiting for the thing to start turning, it was quite a still day!

      Great- it looks like it's about to take off. That flash of sunlight on the blades is a great touch.

      Thats pretty wicked. I wanna have a go at a matchbox pinhole myself but i seem to have misplaced the matches, looks like a trip to the shop is in order

      This is really cool. I'm thinking the same thing except to shoot my fish in a long exposure. I have about 20 very large gold fish and wonder if I shoot them in daylight will they make trails?

      I love all your pictures! and I love your matchbox design! I am definitely going to make one of those!

      Wow! My mate Will lives in that little hut behind the mill (the old engine room).
