The pinhole lens is in place and Nick prepares to attach a standard mailing label on the back opposite the lens.  We put our name on it and will write down best exposure times as we experiment with our new cameras.

Name tag in place.

Nick puts the shutter in place ready to load and shoot.

We normally shoot pearl RC photo paper cut 1.5"x1.5" in our cameras. 

Some Advanced Photo students use 35mm B&W film in their canister cameras

Names are great in a classroom or workshop situation so that people get the right camera or if the leave it around it can be returned.

Nick is getting the changing bag ready in case the darkroom is too full or he wants to take some paper home and load his camera there.  Later I will add my "Mini Darkroom" and show a way to develop in the field.

This is my workshop traveling darkroom.  The table knocks down and I have two sets of small trays.  The beige pan is where I put water for a pre wash.  I have used this at a local private school and at a Boy Scout camp to teach pinhole photography.  Sets up in small areas like a janitors closet or a bathroom in the medical office at Boy Scout camp.  Only my clamp on light with a 7 watt red light is missing from this photo.
