Inspired by a lovely lady and exciting photographer, Cynthia Gemus, I took my new Holga to Glenelg on Friday, to try for some fun fair shots like hers.
The new Holga now has – tape over the Bulb/Normal button (lost shots again), tape to hold the colour flash batteries in place AND tape over the sides to keep it shut. What with bumping the Bulb button, having the silly thing fall open and having very loosely rolled exposed film that I removed in daylight – I achieved 4/12 shots!! Well – next time its out it’ll be taped to within an inch of its life!!
Bought myself a new Holga – this one is army green, so now I get about the neighbourhood with a hot pink Holga on one shoulder and a green one on the other! Quite a sight!!
First images out of the new Holga – some shots and some double exposure experiments.
Not the best of shooting – forgot that I had black and white film loaded, so I’ll need to re-trace my footsteps to re-shoot the playground images, and didn’t realise how easily the ‘Bulb’ slider could be knocked – some over exposed stuff in the mix!!
Anyway – off and rolling, nice light leaks, great vignetting – love the uniqueness of each Holga – a happy photographer!!
