Do you have an empty beer can, a roll of black tape, some photographic paper, and six months? Then you, too, can take some impressively unique pictures.

Photographer Justin Quinnell took the basic theory behind the pinhole camera and applied it to a different sort of container: an aluminum can. Assembly is simple as all get out, and if you’re willing to give it the six months it takes for appropriate exposure, you’ll be able to take pictures as wonderfully warped as this.
