Dear all blissers,

This is Kurt. It's my pleasure to host this meeting.

Do you agree with the old adage "A picture is worth a thousand words"?

Do you enjoy photography? Do you like taking picture for others or to take picture by others?

Have you ever join any photo shoots before?

In this Saturday afternoon, we are going to discuss the birth of modern photography and the basic photography fundamentals.

People know how to use a small hole to project the image for a long time. The first pinhole camera was invented around 1000AD (also known as the Camera Obscura). The light-proof box is the simplest camera without any lens and with a single small hole in one side. In this meeting, you will build not only your own pinhole camera but also the handmade camera knowledge. If you're interesting in photography, welcome to join this meeting.

Best regards,

Kurt
