Holga #2

Amidst the past couple first days of my summer break, I've been enjoying some of the beautiful weather (well, at least in comparison to freezing temps), doing some spring cleaning, and also working on some of the more tedious computer clean up for smoother operation. I'm organizing and trying to 'find' files I maybe miss labeled while working through a large flow of images during the semester. Anyway, .... while organizing I took a few moments to process a few more holga shots I took a couple days ago. Something fun to motivate me to press on with the heavier load of work.






I have found a great application for the lens, in a genre of photography I have been playing around with for the last couple months. Though, I'm not ready to do a reveal of any of those images at this time.

Holga

As the semester is coming to an end, I'm trying to complete everything, make notes for things to touch back upon, set goals, and get things reorganized so that I can go back and finish up a few things that were unable to be completed during the semester.

In the mean time, I thought I'd post a couple photos that I took with my little plastic holga lens I purchased for a shoot. I am pulling things together in order to make my own pin hole camera, and practice along those lines too. Here's a digital version of some holga landscapes. These have only had some color and contrast enhancement applied through photoshop. The rest of the effect was in camera. Or should I say, in lens?
