Question:

Pinhole Camera?

Please help. All I'm getting from my pinhole camera are dark cloudy pictures. Also, do pinhole cameras come out negative? I made a pinhole camera out of an oatmeal container, with the pinhole being punched in a sheet of aluminum foil taped over a hole in the tube, and a shutter made out of gaffers tape. I have tried exposures from one to two minutes, then the photo paper spends a little more than a minute in the developer, about five seconds in the stop bath, and then another couple in the fixer before being washed off.
