Beautiful !
The clearest work on 35mm Holga I ever saw.
But I was wondering somthing.
Why is there "echoes" of the film holes ?
You see ? in the sky part, we can see the hole shape a bit darker juste behind the holes ?
I'm not sure I'm clear...

Yeah i noticed that too and I think the cause is the negative not being flat when I scanned it. When I held it flat pressed up against the glass these things didn't appear but unfortunately this technique caused red ripples to appear on the image when viewed at 100% at approx 12000x8000 pixels which I didn't want for huge prints. The only way to scan them in without the ripples was to have it sitting normally a small distance from the scanning glass but of course this meant the negative couldn't be flat and wasn't helped by the fact that the negative was curved due to bad handling to begin with.

maybe it was a chemical problem, did you try to put a thiiiin neutral (chemical and color) translucent film between the neg and the glass ?
By the way. really impressive and beautiful serie.
