Here’s a time-lapse video of Kiel Johnson building his twin reflex camera using only cardboard, hot glue, and tape. Although it was designed only to be a sculpture, when it was finished, they turned it into a pinhole camera and actually took photos with it. You can view those images here.

Today we bring you the Fall/Holiday lookbook from 9Five. The Californian brand designs sunglasses inspired by skateboarding culture.
