Camera Obscura making pack for Barber@Home


I've produced a free PDF pack about how to make Camera Obscura with the Barber Institute of Fine Arts at University of Birmingham. This was made as part of their online exhibition 'Sights of Wonder' which shows images from pioneering Victorian photographer Francis Bedford's Royal Tour of Egypt, accompanying Prince Albert in 1862.

The activity includes an illustrated guide on how to make cardboard and room sized camera obscura using materials that you have around the house.

The PDF packs can be accessed here.
