The Solarcan Puck is a Single-Day Time Exposure Pinhole Camera
The Solarcan Puck is a reusable time exposure pinhole camera that is designed to capture the path of the Sun as it moves across the sky over the course of a day.
The Solarcan Puck is a reusable time exposure pinhole camera that is designed to capture the path of the Sun as it moves across the sky over the course of a day.
Solarcan has announced Puck, a smaller limited-time version of its soda-can-shaped Sun-catching camera. The new model comes shaped like a circle and produces round instead of more traditional rectangle images.
Three years after launching the original Solarcan, photographer Sam Cornwell has just unveiled Solarcan Colours. It's a trio of new cameras that each captures solargraphs in a different tint.
This is a solargraph captured from Antarctica. The lines you see show the paths the Sun took across the sky during the six months this photo was being exposed.
Solargraphies (pinhole images on photographic paper that capture months of the sun arching across the horizon) were a thing starting sometime in the 2000s. When this caught on broadly in the early 2010s, it got a lot of people excited for film again.
Solargraphy is a technique for photographing the sun's path through the sky by using a pinhole camera to expose photographic paper for anywhere from a few hours to over a year. Photographer Sam Cornwell has created what he believes is the world's first solargraphy timelapse.
Want to try your hand at solargraphy and months-long exposures of the Sun without having to spend time making your own DIY camera? Solarcan is a new camera being developed just for you.
Want to try your hand at creating a solargraph? Photographer Justin Quinnell recorded this informative and humorous 14-minute video tutorial on how you can create a pinhole camera for 6-month-long exposures using only a beer can, some photo paper, a pin, and lots of gaffer tape (which Quinnell calls the "elixir of life").
If you're looking to do a solargraphy project by leaving a pinhole camera in a place for months, a bridge above a busy freeway is not a smart location choice.
Solargraphy involves using a pinhole camera to shoot extremely long exposures of scenes. Photographers who engage in it often leave their cameras fixed to outdoor locations for months or years in order to capture the path of the sun across the sky.
Waiting until the whole exposure is complete before seeing if an image turned out is painful enough, but there's another major difficulty that can cause practitioners pain: the cameras are sometimes mistaken for bombs.
On January 1st of last year, photographer Michael Chrisman began shooting a solargraph by placing a pinhole …

Solargraphy is a technique in which a fixed pinhole camera is used to expose photographic paper for an absurdly long amount of time (sometimes half a year).
