This is a pinhole/slit photograph. Actually, calling it a pinhole anything is misleading, since there's no hole. The slit was contructed from two razor blades placed very close together and vertically oriented. I didn't get the kind of distortion I thought I would. But what I find interesting about this image (it's kind of mundane subject matter) is that I got clearly defined clouds. With a traditional pinhole, properly exposed, the sky is usually the first thing to go -- totally blown out, that is. And this was taken at midday.

Seven second exposure, Ilford paper/chemicals.

very cool approach - i almost can imagine it is from small critter that is opening its eyes and getting ready to venture out

I feel like I'm waking up from a sunbathed stupor!

I am happy to read you also have duds!

This image appeals to me greatly. And the tilted horizon adds to the allure :)
