RayKo’s 2013 Pinhole Photography Show & Free Workshop | SoMa

Submitted by the Event Organizer

In honor of Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day (WPPD) on Sunday, April 28, 2013, RayKo Photo Center is hosting an exhibition of pinhole photography in the main gallery featuring the invented cameras of Jo Babcock, plus 50 images from pinhole fanatics around the world.

This is the fourth biennial juried show of photographic work taken with pinhole cameras.

Be prepared for giant chromogenic prints of upside down negative cities in glowing red, tiny blurred seascapes printed in blue, and distorted figures sprawled across an orb-like foreign landscape.
