The May 2011 issue of National Geographic has a brief article on my “all-time favorite thing” — the camera obscura.

Included is some discussion with alpha-obscurist Abelardo Morell as well as a gallery featuring his obscura-driven work.

Also cool — a 90 second video of National Geographic staffers making their own camera obscura room. It’s a concise “how-to” video for any of you who’ve never converted a room into a camera.
