Camera Obscura

I decided to make a camera obscura using a cereal box. I began by gathering the supplies:


Cereal box, bag, scissors, tape, and a thumbtack.

Then I cut a square in the box:



Then I cut the bag and taped it over the hole:


Lastly, I used the thumbtack to poke a hole in the opposite side of the cereal box.



Then it was time to hold it up to a light source. I used a lamp that hangs above my desk. Although it's somewhat dark and not the easiest to see in a picture, there is an inverted reflection of the lamp:



(You can see the large circular rim and the cord coming out of the bottom rather than the top)

Overall, I thought it was an interesting project to do and would like to see what a large-scale camera obscura looks like too.
