I heard about Abelardo Morell when I was going to SAC and he was brought up in one of my photo classes while we were studying pinhole cameras. I was always fascinated at how he came up with such a simple but extraordinary idea. He would travel around the world and turn his hotel room into a camera obscura or a giant pinhole camera and then photograph his hotel room which he had turned into a photo itself.
