camera obscura

what did you see while you were inside the camera obscura?

while we were in the camera obscura, at first we couldnt really see anything as our eyes were trying to get usto the light but then after acouple of minutes we started to see some objects moving. after some more time we could see buildings and more details.

how is this camera obscura similar to the inside of a camera?
how it is different?

the camera obscura is similar to a camera because the light is coming through a little hole just like a camera hole, the light will come through the hole and form an image upside down.
it is different because the camera obscura does not involve a camera.

why was the image upside down?

the light travels in a straight line and the light goes through a little hole thats why the top of the iamge becomes the bottom and the bottom becomes the top.
