Description Just a shot with my holga when walking around downtown. I could have included the bike on the right or more people but I'm not fast enough to get the camera ready... even though this is just a Holga!

Scanned from neg (of course!).

Thanks for commenting.

J'allais commenter rapidement pour dire que j'adorais la photo mais que je regrettais le vignettage. Mais subitement, j'ai vu le cadre, et la mention 400TX, et le Holga et le format carré et finalement, elle est parfaitement, la photo!

Depuis le temps que je me promets un Holga un peu plus portable que mon RZ! Là, vous m'en donnez le goût!

Vous m'en voyez honoree et ravie... le tout est de voir si effectivement vous aurez bientot un Holga en votre possession...
Pour l'instant, l'histoire ne le dit pas. Alors je serai patiente!...

Bah, un Holga, c'est $20 sur ebay, alors ça ne devrait pas être un problème. D'ailleurs, j'avais envie de mettre du film 35mm infrarouge à l'intérieur pour pouvoir faire du panoramique. Faut s'amuser un peu!

Nirka In reply to viewfinder [2006-09-09 02:49:43 +0000 UTC]

My boss has a HP scanjet XPA. It's not so bad... I'm not a pro for scanning negs but it worked out fine so far. Do you actually scan your negs too??

viewfinder In reply to Nirka [2006-09-09 03:27:48 +0000 UTC]

Aha, so this is the Nirka I have heard so much about! This reminds me of SanDiego when I first went there so long ago. I am glad it is not in colour.

I don't know who told you about me but I hope it was in good
I have actually been to the Sonoran desert (in Tucson)... and the Saguaro desert also, where I took the shot of Desert Beauty .
I like deserts: so many opportunities to make nice photos...
By the way, I hope you have a cool souvenir of SD!
Take care,
Karine.

he! elle est geniale ta photo titi! on dirait presque une photo a la jmonzani ou les personnes et les camions ressemblent a des playmobils--tu te souviens de laquelle je parle? j'aime la dynamique, les contrastes et le cadrage en plus c'est un challenge avec l'holga, hein? bien joue!

C'est vrai, tu as raison pour les playmobils.

Playmobil va t'o marche, il achete tlloaaaas p'tits cocos!
Playmobil, playmobil!!

Oui la dynamique... je suis contente du rendu. c'est pas trop mal.
Merci pour ton chouette commentaire!

Ben oui, figure toi qu'au debut j'aimais bien l'Ilford HP5, mais le kodak m'epate.
Il ne me reste plus qu'une pellicule de Kodak... pour la Luxbox ou le Holga?
Telle est la question!

that is some insane detail you have there ... and the picture seems so 3-D ... it's almost as though the tram would fall over at any given moment ... btw ... the Holga is the old camera ... right?

Nirka In reply to Jerekh [2006-08-30 19:57:54 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for your nice comment!
The Holga is not the old one. This is a toy camera. Check this: [link]
This is fun to use it... even though some pictures turn out to be crap.
