Marcus Kaiser / View West

Marcus Kaiser / View West 

Marcus' image was shot with a Pinhole Camera and can be found on the to Pinhole Resources Gallery. I think this is an interesting shot because it gives the impression that you are seeing something few others have seen. It feels like you are looking through a key hole or looking out from inside a cave. I also has the feeling of the old west  Marcus Kaiser actually used holes in the Berlin Wall as pinholes and photographed both East and West Berlin  More information about Pinhole can be found here.
