Pho Viet Ghost

You missed out flare and a 'black sun', but you seem to have most of them .

I like the 'OPEN' sign. I didn't know pinholes could do that...

Remarable definition! Is "Reality So Subtle 6x12 hemispheric pinhole" an entire pinhole camera set up, or is it just a precision made pinhole? I like the little scene off to the right, it's a nice addition to the rest of the image.

it is a complete camera - it's a bit of a bread loaf in shape, and inside instead of a flat film plane it has a hemispheric film plane so that the ends of the frame are equidistant from the pinhole and you don't get falloff/vignetting in the corners. That curve also lends the image its distorted perspective.

Very good shot. I couldn't make out the reality of it all. Google comes up with the street view https://www.google.com/maps/uv?pb=!1s0x89b7b778872a62bf:0x853f599b2dcacec9!3m1!7e115!4s/maps/place/pho+viet+usa+washington+heights/@38.9245752,-77.027039,3a,75y,267.06h,90t/data=*213m4*211e1*213m2*211sTiIVzni84cL-8WWZ5XuUIg*212e0*214m2*213m1*211s0x89b7b778872a62bf:0x853f599b2dcacec9?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjb1vK78_CKAxVnLtAFHXMCOb4Qpx96BAg8EAA!5spho viet usa washington heights - Google Search!15sCgIgAQ&imagekey=!1e2!2sTiIVzni84cL-8WWZ5XuUIg&cr=le_a7&hl=en&ved=1t:206134&ictx=111 (you have to click the the compass at 9 o'clock); even with straight viewpoint I can't make sense of the houses to the right. Again, congratulations; to get that out of a pinhole where you can't see what you are going to get is a wonderful bit of luck/genius.
