Today, April 26, 2009 is Worldwide Pinhole Camera Day. What is the Worldwide Pinhole Photography day?

It is an international event created to promote and celebrate the art of pinhole photography. On this unique day, people throughout the world are encouraged to take some time off from the increasingly technological world we live in and participate in the simple act of making a pinhole photograph. You are also encouraged to share your visions and help spread the unusual beauty of this historical photographic process.

Read more about it and learn how to participate on the Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day website.
