Lately, I've been thinking I want a Holga. Don't know what that is? Well, a Holga was a child's toy camera introduced in the early 80's. It is actually a manual camera, but it's cheap construction creates weird and wonderful distortions in the images it produces. This was not on purpose mind you, but, in recent years, they have made a come back in photography circles. Anyhoo...I found a way to duplicate(kind of) the results on digital photographs. I just tested it out and am totally thrilled to bits! I just can't decide which one to blow up--the black and white or the color? Anyone?
Me likey ;) I should be actually working though and not playing around. And now I'm going to get caught as I posted it on my blog!!! Oh well...
I'm throwing this one in of Seattle as well. It was my initial test photo...

My vote is for the color.....my husband wants a Holga too....what it is with you weird camera junkies???
My vote is for the black and white one. It reminds me of a picture I might find amongst my grandma's things, and I wouldn't know who took it or who was in it, but I would still love it 'cause it is all faded around the edges and beautiful.
P.S I love all your work so keep posting 'cause I check the site obsessively.
Those photos are gorgeous!! I vote for the colour, but they are both gorgeous!
I'm all for the black and white. It looks more genuine and original. Nothing can compete.
