CAMERA OBSCURA





no i'm not talking about that band from glasgow (who i fucking love to bits btw). i'm talking about the original camera obscura. the phenomenon where sunlight coming into a room is blocked with a black tarp and a little hole is then cut to allow a solid stream of light in. the pictures above is the result of that light. i'm no scientist so i really can't explain how a perfect image, albeit upside down, is projected to the wall but as you can see from photographer abelardo morell's images, the results are pretty fucking spectacular.
