Just looking at this camera obscura makes me happy

Camera obscuras are so fun. I love the wooden box too, but you can easily make on from crap lying around the house… Just a cardboard box with a tube and a lens from a magnifying glass, plus some vellum/tracing paper for the image to project on.

I’ve always thought it would be cool to convert an old box-truck into one, or a pinhole camera.
