Camera Obscura- Meaning "dark room" in Latin. It is the natural phenomenon that occurs when an image of a screened-off scene is projected invertedly on a surface by rays of light that have traveled from the objects in the scene through a small aperture in a dividing wall or screen onto the surface facing the aperture. In class, we blacked out/ darkened the entire classroom, only letting a small hole of light shine through. We, the students, held up a cardboard box to the light and saw the image of the tree and quad outside being projected onto the box. The experience was very interesting and opened my eyes to the various techniques used in photography.
