New York Holga Love




In mid-July, I took a long weekend up to the greatest city in the world with the hopes of getting the creative juices flowing again. To help enhance the creative energies, I took two cameras: my D200, with only a 50mm lens, & an old fashioned, good ol plastic Holga.

This Holga is life changing, let me tell you! The lack of control over your image, the "what you see is what you get" when shooting with film, the light leaks & the imperfections of each image make each image, to me, all that much more perfect. These were all shot on Kodak Black & White 120mm film & are straight out of the glorius camera.

I'm in love.
