Holga in Paris

Mike Lane

I got my 5DII kit within the first couple of weeks that it was available, I've got far more lenses and camera crap than any sensible person who doesn't make money from his photography should, all of them the red stripey kind.

My mom asked me to fill in my Amazon wish list for my birthday and on a lark I added a $40 Holga. She got it and lucky for me there's a great little camera shop in a town near me that sells the 120mm film too.

I'll tell you, I haven't had so much fun with photography in a long time. Now I'm seriously looking for a Pacemaker Speed Graphic 4x5 camera and wondering how much I'll be using my 5DII. I'm a little scared of film though :lol3

Here are 3 shots from Paris:









And here's an extra bonus shot from Radcliffe Camera in Oxford, England:




Hope you like them...

These are really cool.

I have an old brownie that I'm trying to find film for. Don't even know how well it works, but it does get me feeling creative just thinking about it.

I love, love, love these! I want to shoot something digitally and have it give that kind of authentic feel, but I haven't seen anything that touches it yet. I miss my Sinar 4x5, but not the costs that went with it.

Like the first and the last shots the most.
Sometimes the cheapest is the way to go for more fun.

Really nice set! Love the first and last.

Those are awesome. I'm a big fan of the holga look, should probably just bite the bullet and get one instead of spending endless hours in photoshop trying to duplicate it
